Psychotherapy

It can be a blurry line between the two, however, typically counselling is more mainstream with a focus on one’s immediate issues (usually addressed and resolved on a more conscious level) and done through talking therapy, unless the counsellor is holistically trained.

Psychotherapy, on the other hand, is usually a less traditional process and could be considered a form of holistic counselling. It looks deeper into your patterns of behaviour, your beliefs and thought processes, and the root cause of your problems. Psychotherapy often utilises non-traditional forms of therapy such as movement, gestures, role playing, dream analysis, inner processes, artwork to name a few.

This helps the client connect with their less known or unconscious parts of themselves that usually holds the key to transformation.

It is important that both you and your therapist feel comfortable in the therapy relationship. If you enjoyed and felt comfortable in this first session, and would like to continue working together, then it is suggested that you book in for at least 4 sessions over 2 months so that some consistency & momentum is created. You will know by this point if there is an ease & synergy to the therapeutic relationship and would like to work together on an ongoing basis.

Yes absolutely, sessions can done remotely either within Australia or globally. This is an effective and practical way to work especially if you do not have access to therapists locally.

Yes I do see couples. Although I do not specialise as a couples therapist, per se, I do have a speciality working with pregnant couples & new parents, as well as for couples wanting an amicable separation.
