After 35 years working for psychological intimacy I have become, almost exclusively, a couples therapist. I came to realise how few of the issues presented to counsellors/therapists are not better assisted and producing more robust changes when a significant other also attends. The research now confirms it. None more importantly than marital and family issues where an individual therapy may be harmful to the relationship. Not surprisingly this is also true of depression and anxiety. Continuing professional development accreditation for Memberships of Australian Psychological Society and APS College of Clinical Psychology and registration with ACT Board of Psychology.
   
35 years Clinical, Relationship & Health Psychology working with childhood and adult loss and trauma; with depression and despair; couple and family therapy, romance and sex addiction, infidelity and betrayal. Providing solution focussed and long term therapy and/or re-parenting, relationship coaching and mentoring, pre-coupling education and teaching meditation. The search for meaning and for the rapture of being alive are vibrant twins at the core of human motivation. This is true both every day in what motivates people and doesn't and also at the extremes of survival. From the humblest person to the most exalted, we can be simple creatures, simply satisfied while embracing a life of ever increasing complexity. Each is inevitable. Happiness is a by product of absorption in what we are doing. Absorption follows our passions.
