How I can help
Many reasons might bring an individual or a couple to therapy. People might look for support in response to things that are going on in their lives now, or long-term issues that may stem from past experiences or relationships. Often people may feel stuck – in a certain place in their lives, in patterns of behaviour that have a negative impact on them, or in a relationship.
