Marriage and Relationship Counselling
Marriage and relationship counselling (couples therapy) strengthens the bond between two people in a committed relationship. Relationships are built on commitment, honesty and transparency, which are the key ingredients needed for a functional partnership.
Depression
Depression is a severe medical ailment that affects mood, behaviour, thinking and emotional responses, leading to sadness and hopelessness.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a reaction to stress for fear of what is yet to come. Everyday situations cause stress and anxiety. However, prolonged episodes of anxiety are unhealthy and detrimental to an individual’s health.
Trauma
Trauma is an event, a series of events, or a set of enduring conditions in which:
- The individual’s ability to cope and make sense of what is happening, is impaired.
- An experience is perceived as threatening to life, safety, dignity, or bodily integrity, and the nervous system is pushed beyond its capacity to regulate.
- The impact of the event leaves lasting and persistent changes in how a person’s body, emotions, thoughts, and relationships function.
- The event shows up as heightened threat sensitivity, difficulty regulating emotions, disrupted memory and meaning making, and altered expectations of self, others, and the world.
In short, trauma is what happens inside a person when an experience is too much, too fast, or too long to be processed safely at the time.
Anger Management
Anger management is the process of transforming reactive, secondary anger by accessing and responding to the underlying vulnerable emotions and unmet attachment needs that drive it, rather than suppressing or controlling the anger itself. My aim is to treat anger not by managing it away, but by transforming it through emotional processing and secure attachment experiences.
