I am a firm believer in the power of the relationship that unfolds in a therapeutic setting and the enormous privilege that I am given to walk alongside an individual/ couple or family as they navigate the next step.

I believe we all deserve a supportive space where we can safely explore the issues that matter to us, at our own pace.

You may be feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed, while you try to navigate your experiences.

Do you wonder "what's happened to us?" Maybe you know what's happened, a betrayal for example, maybe you don't know, but things just don't feel like they used to. You might be having more arguments, feeling disconnected from each-other or resentful and hurt. Maybe you struggle to communicate without anger, or feel you can't talk about the 'big' things. Maybe you struggle with anxiety, depression or unaddressed stress that impacts your relationship. Or, maybe it is stressors outside your relationship, but is impacting it, such as in-laws or FIFO work. Whatever the cause, I imagine you just want your relationship to feel better.

Hi, I am Theresa Acutt. The very first thing I will do is listen. I will provide a space where you are heard and supported, at your pace, so that you are able to move towards finding solutions that work for you. This space is a highly confidential and nonjudgmental space. During the session, I will incorporate a variety of evidence-based interventions specific to your individual needs. Imagine that in your session, you were to discover a small step that showed you a way out of a situation, new perspectives, clarity, new skill, strategies and a better version of yourself.

Grief and loss are part of everyday life however, there are ways to complete these lost relationships allowing the Client to move forward with their life. Trauma is brought about by events out-with our control or choices we've made or others in our lives. To bring healing from these events includes having a safe place to share the experience so that new ways of managing life are developed to allow healing to take place. This enables my clients to find true peace, rest & joy with life again. Therapy enables my clients to seek & find their true self, empowers them with endurance & tenacity while encouraging them to keep persevering.
