How we can help
Your psychologist may use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based work, and behavioural strategies. The focus is on understanding what is keeping anxiety or low mood going, then practising practical strategies between sessions.
Anxiety and depression often affect close relationships. If relationship stress is part of what you're carrying, we also offer couples therapy for couples who want to work on communication, conflict, and patterns together.
