IMAGO Relationship Therapy
Imago teaches a way of communicating with your partner about what really matters in your intimate relationships — what you need to feel loved, cared for, connected, and safe. It can help you and your partner to ask for what you need from each other, and to give what you need to each other, to bring you into compassionate and empathic connection.
Individual Psychotherapy
Individual psychotherapy is a collaborative counselling process that requires the client's willingness to co-operate. The greater your ability to share frankly with your psychotherapist, and be open to change, the greater the results.
Neurotherapy
Also known as neurofeedback or EEG biofeedback, is an effective method of treatment where a client learns to change his / her own brainwave patterns through a process of auditory feedback.
