I work with
adults
and adolescents and I also run DBT based groups regularly, let us know if you are interested in the next one.
I'm always grateful for the opportunity to provide support, as I'm aware of the bravery that therapy takes, being vulnerable in session is immense. All clinicians at the clinic I run aim to work in a non-directive, client-centred way, meaning the client sets their own treatment goals and we're just the support that holds difficult or overwhelming emotions where needed. This allows the client to drive their own therapy and shows them that they can create a better life. Please know, I'm not currently taking new clients, however other clinicians at my clinic are!
