Become free of your pain. Get relationship & sex counselling that works based on 50 years of research. Relationship coaching for singles can help you develop happy & healthy relationships. Couples coaching can help you reconnect to the intimacy & love you once had. I have many tools to help you become connected whilst staying protected because I've worked with people from diverse backgrounds since 1981. I'm an accredited sex therapist with ASSERT & accredited clinical supervisor with PACFA.
My greatest joy comes from helping you have happier & more successful relationships at home, at work & within your social connections. I openly discuss your expectations & goals to help you discover the best ways to deal with the challenges in your life. I help you harness your abilities & your preferred ideas of working to co-create a tailor-made treatment plan with you. Together we create a roadmap to help you steadily work towards your goals. Thirty years of meta-analytic studies show that you, the client, contribute 87% towards successful outcomes in therapy. You are hiring me to help you get where you want to go. Please read my page on Your Theory of Change for further details about my approach https://rb.gy/q5k84
EMDR, Experiential, Gottman Method, Integrative, Internal Family Systems, Marriage and Family, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Psychosexual, Solution Oriented, Trauma-Informed
30 years of meta-analytic studies by Bruce Wampold https://rb.gy/4mnq4 shows that as long as a therapist provides a coherent, cogent & structured treatment which makes sense to the client, all models of therapy contribute less than 1% to the outcomes of therapy. The biggest contributor (87%) is the client & their supports outside of therapy. Next comes the therapist’s ability (4-9%) to create a working collaboration with the client & getting an agreement on their goals for therapy. The therapeutic approaches within the integrative framework I use include:
* Psychodynamic
* Humanistic/ Gestalt/ Experiential
* Cognitive-behavioral
* Somatic
* Existential/Transpersonal.
Ongoing personal & professional development are essential to keep me informed and up to date with changes in the field of therapy. I have been in practice since 1981 & since 2004 have used Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT- https://rb.gy/kiyl9) with every client & supervisee. I am in regular supervision with FIT supervisors & have begun training to be a trainer in FIT. FIT is based on over thirty years of research by Scott D Miller, Bruce Wampold, John Norcross, Michael Lambert, Daryl Chow etc
I worked as a naturopath/counsellor/crisis & group worker in a women's refuge & in Leichhardt Women's Community Health Centre from 1981-1986. Since 1987 I have been in private practice & continued my personal development through study, personal work & using an integral approach to self-care. I am a registered therapist & supervisor with PACFA & am a certified sex therapist with ASSERT. I have supervised counsellors & psychotherapists for many years, was an educator at the Australian College of Applied Psychology & taught supervision at the University of Canberra. Many of my clients are counsellors, psychologists and social workers. They say I'm a "therapist's therapist" :)
