Staying curious is a work-out when stressed. How do you to understand the problem you are experiencing, how is it expressed and how can you mindfully respond? How clear are you about your boundaries; what you will and won't do; what you will take responsibility for and what you won't? I will help you understand the problems you are experiencing. Symptoms are an expression of the challenges we face. A helpful strategy is to learn more about your family, where you have come from. The problem or symptom is not in the individual but often a reaction to relationship sensitivities. Let me know if you are interested to have a chat.
Anita is a psychologist with over 30 years experience, she specializes in individual, couple and family therapy utilizing Bowen Family Systems thinking. Symptoms are an expression of the challenges we face in live. Anita coaches clients to express self calmly, clearly through improved communication. She offers very reasonable rates.
All potential new clients are invited to contact Anita for an initial chat. Anita recognizes that finding the 'right fit' psychologist/counsellor is important and taking the initial step of contacting a psychologist can be daunting. Anita is very happy to answer any questions you may have and she looks forward to your call for an initial chat.
