As an experienced/ individual/family/couple counsellor for over 20 years, I know that relationships can decline for many reasons, I offer a safe, confidential, relaxing space to facilitate individuals, couples, families, ex partners, separation, colleagues, extended family, to support you to talk about current difficult conversations that need addressed to help find a way through current and past issues. Are you feeling lonely, frightened, rejected, frustrated in your current relationship. Do you go home with dread every day? Has intimacy declined or become a chore? Are you at the point of 'mending' or 'ending' your relationship?

I know from my own experience of Psychotherapy the importance of finding the right person who I can trust to listen and help me to understand my problems. I have been practising for over 25 years and I believe the vast amount of our suffering is primarily concerned with anxiety, despair, trauma abuse and often a sense of not belonging.

My approach focuses on the human narrative in the meaning making process. Each human being has a story that matters and no story is less or more important than any other. Understanding our story leads to healthy connection with ourselves and our environment. Without this connection, emotional and physical suffering prevail. Entering into the therapeutic relationship takes courage and commitment because it means exploring unknown territory. It's a journey of self discovery and awareness that can sometimes feel overwhelming. Ultimately though, it is liberating and restorative. Mind, Body and Soul find new balance in co-regulation.

Life can be challenging; you may be experiencing feelings of being overwhelmed, anxiousness, depression, sadness, hopelessness, or you may have reached a crisis point in your life, but be assured you are not alone, and even the most strong-minded person can feel lost at times. The loss of a loved one, or struggling to make sense of your feelings and emotions can be difficult. Past issues can be destroying but by exploring and addressing these issues it can enable you to move forward. No matter what your presenting issues may be at this time in your life, you have taken the first brave step and you should be proud of yourself.

Life can challenge us in every way both imaginable or unimaginable. We can often feel swept along or that certain situations are steering us rather than the other way around. When we feel that life is passing us by or that it is happening to us without our input, therapy is a worthwhile investment in you. Counselling can help us to manage these life experiences in a way that will empower you to take control back. Considering counselling can be daunting and I am here to make this process as comfortable as possible for you as you begin to assert control over areas of challenge in your life.

Divorce Counsellors

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
