Individual Therapy & Counselling

There can be a variety of reasons people may feel the need to seek therapy. At times we may not understand why we’re unable to cope with a situation that we once were able to or we may be experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and beyond.

Often people assume that psychological services are only targeted towards dealing with a current crisis or a mental health concern. Speaking to a psychologist can be helpful even if you are not in significant distress or dealing with a crisis.

Participating in therapy sessions can provide you with a safe space to identify your problems, get a better understanding of the factors contributing to your current struggles as well as develop effective solutions and strategies to mange your difficulties.

Your Well-being is Important

At times taking the first step towards psychological services can seem difficult. You may feel a little hesitant or apprehensive to reach out and seek help for the challenges you are facing. It is important for you to know that it is not uncommon to speak to a psychologist for personal concerns or difficulties. Research has demonstrated that psychotherapy is an effective form of treatment for a wide range of difficulties.

When to Seek Guidance

There are many reasons you may feel the need to seek help, guidance or support from a psychologist. For example:

  • Are you stressed and over whelmed?
  • Do you experience anxiety (e.g., panic attacks, uncontrollable worry, intrusive or obsessive thoughts, phobias etc)?
  • Are you suffering from a low mood or depression?
  • Are you seeking support in areas such as:
    • Self-esteem issues
    • Managing transitions (e.g., career, education, family)
    • Interpersonal difficulties
  • Are you struggling with couples/relationship concerns?
  • Would like to:
    • Enhance the quality of your relationship with your partner?
