Our immediate goal is to help alleviate emotional pain and confusion and to build self confidence and coping skills. To do this we specialise in short, to long term, psychodynamic psychotherapy which consist of a series of conversations between you and your therapist.
These conversations are conducted with sensitivity, warmth and understanding in the confidential space of our consulting rooms or if preferred via Telehealth.
