I believe everyone has the ability to create a life worth living, yet modern life often presents us with challenges that feel overwhelming and prevent us living congruently with our authentic values. Whether you are navigating a sudden crisis, managing a chronic condition, or want to better understand yourself and your relationships, psychotherapy can be a catalyst for insight, relief, change or resilience. I don’t believe in a "one size fits all" approach and use evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs.

Julia Kuhn
Psychologist, MA, HPCSA - Clin. Psych.
It takes some courage to take the decision to come to psychotherapy. You may have experienced a sudden painful disruption in your life which has thrown into question your beliefs about your relationships, yourself and the world, creating a loss of safety. Or perhaps the difficult feelings have been building over time, but you can no longer push them out of mind and tell yourself to bear it and carry on. It can feel both hopeful and frightening to come to therapy. The thought of talking about very personal things to a stranger is understandably anxiety provoking and the need for emotional safety to do so, is essential.

Everyone of us faces challenges in life, our struggles just looks different. I believe that no matter how small or big the challenge, you have to work through it. As someone who taught at a high-school for 4 years, I know the effect that low self-image, trauma, relationship troubles between parents etc can have on their kids and on the parents. I would love to create a safe space and offer support to clients with low self-image, trauma, relationship problems and people who experience challenges. If your goal is to become happier, healthier and to stress less, you should give online counselling a try.

My work is psychoanalytically informed, creating a space where clients can freely explore their thoughts, emotions, and histories at their own pace. While my foundation is psychoanalytic, I also make use of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) when clinically indicated, particularly for individuals who experience emotional dysregulation, impulsivity, or self-destructive behaviours. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and work collaboratively to ensure that therapy is a meaningful and transformative experience.
