What we treat

About Our Services

Our clinic provides a unique, integrated approach that addresses the intricate connection between the brain, the mind, and lived experience. We offer four core services to support our clients:

  • Cognitive Rehabilitation: Targeted exercises and strategies to restore or compensate for impaired cognitive functions (e.g., memory, attention, executive functions) due to injury, illness, or psychological trauma.
  • Cognitive Enhancement: Evidence-based training and techniques to strengthen and optimize cognitive performance, resilience, and mental agility, even in the absence of a specific impairment.
  • Psychotherapy & Counselling: A safe, supportive space to process emotions, change unhelpful patterns, and develop coping skills through modalities like CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed therapy.
  • Psychoeducation: Providing essential knowledge about a condition, its treatment, and the brain-behavior connection. This empowers clients and their families to better understand and manage their journey.
Initial Assessment & Consultation

This comprehensive introductory session is dedicated to understanding your full background—cognitive, emotional, social, and personal. We’ll discuss your current challenges, strengths, and life context in detail. The session includes a thorough assessment, collaborative goal setting, and a personalized roadmap for therapy. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, clarify your needs, and receive recommendations tailored to your unique situation. This session lays the foundation for a trusting therapeutic relationship and ensures that all future interventions are relevant and effective. Learn more about our services

Working through the impact of abuse, maltreatment, and trauma

We appreciate how profoundly distressing and isolating experiences of abuse and trauma can be. We create a nurturing, respectful space where your story is truly heard and validated. Employing trauma-sensitive therapies such as EMDR or trauma-focused CBT, we help you gently explore painful memories, restore your sense of safety, and nurture hope and empowerment for healing and rebuilding your life on your own terms.

Supporting psychological healing for individuals with disabilities who have experienced trauma or abuse

Recognising the compounded challenges trauma can impose alongside disability, we provide tailored, strengths-based support that acknowledges your individuality and resilience. We prioritise your independence and accessibility needs, standing alongside you as we work together to overcome trauma’s impact and foster self-advocacy and renewed confidence in your life.

Helping children and adolescents recover from psychological maltreatment

Young people subjected to emotional harm deserve compassionate and developmentally sensitive care. Utilizing creative therapies such as play, art, and age-appropriate CBT, alongside systemic family support, we focus on rebuilding trust, encouraging emotional safety, and planting seeds of resilience so children may flourish with renewed self-worth and optimism.

Exploring and addressing the effects of cultural factors, structural racism, and inequity on mental health

We understand that the pain and barriers tied to cultural identity, systemic racism, and social inequality can deeply affect your sense of self and belonging. Within therapy, your lived experiences will be honoured and reflected with empathy. Together, we cultivate pride in your heritage, develop effective coping mechanisms, and connect you with supportive communities, advocating hand-in-hand for fairness and justice.

Recognising and processing experiences of bias, discrimination, and systemic barriers

Confronting discrimination and systemic obstacles can be emotionally exhausting. We provide a safe space to unpack these experiences without judgement, helping you build empowering strategies to manage the psychological impacts, enhance self-worth, and assert your rights with courage and clarity.

Providing multicultural counselling and culturally responsive therapy

Your cultural background and unique worldview are invaluable in the therapeutic process. We invite you to bring your traditions, languages, and values fully into sessions. Our approach honours diversity as a source of strength and tailors evidence-based interventions to resonate authentically with your cultural narrative, fostering an environment of acceptance and belonging.

Facilitating adjustment and coping for those facing neurodegenerative conditions

Receiving a diagnosis of a neurodegenerative illness or living with its progression can be overwhelming and frightening. We offer compassionate support to help you express your fears, process grief, and adapt to life’s changes. Whether through supportive counselling, psychoeducation, or family support, we help you and your loved ones navigate this journey with dignity, connection, and hope.

Counselling and psychoeducation for carers of those with cognitive impairment

Carers often bear emotional, physical, and social burdens that can lead to exhaustion and isolation. We provide a compassionate ear and practical coping tools, including stress management, boundary setting, and self-care strategies, as well as creating peer support networks and educational resources to sustain your wellbeing alongside your caregiving role.

Treating mood disorders—depression, bipolar disorder, perinatal depression

Depression and mood fluctuations can leave you feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. We approach therapy with gentleness and patience, using validated methods like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, or mindfulness-based techniques tailored to your needs. Especially during pregnancy or early parenthood, we provide supportive care that recognises your complex emotions and fosters emotional restoration and resilience.

Supporting healthy child development and empowering parents

Parenting is a rewarding yet demanding responsibility. We provide empathetic guidance, evidence-informed strategies, and supportive interventions designed to strengthen parent-child bonds, encourage healthy emotional development, and provide clarity and reassurance during challenging phases or developmental concerns.

Therapeutic interventions for neurodevelopmental conditions (autism, ADHD, epilepsy)

Neurodiversity is a source of rich variation and strengths, alongside its challenges. We deliver compassionate, individualised interventions such as behavioural therapies, social and emotional skills work, and executive functioning support, collaborating closely with families, schools, and medical specialists to provide consistent, affirming care.

Treatment of eating disorders

Eating disorders often carry feelings of shame and isolation. In our non-judgmental and compassionate space, we carry out thorough assessments and tailor treatments—whether cognitive behavioural, family-based, or nutrition-informed—focused on gentler relationships with food and self, supporting you on your journey towards recovery and self-compassion.

Upholding and modelling ethical principles in psychology and research

Trust is the cornerstone of therapy. We uphold the highest ethical standards, ensuring your confidentiality, informed consent, and dignity are integral at every step. If research participation is involved, we guide you transparently, so your comfort and welfare remain central.

Offering grief therapy for bereavement, including complicated grief

Grieving can be profoundly painful and isolating. We provide a sensitive and compassionate environment where your sorrow is recognised and honoured. Using therapy approaches such as Meaning Reconstruction and Complicated Grief Therapy, we support your unique path through loss, helping you gradually find peace and renewed purpose.

Integrating digital tools and innovative healthcare technology into therapy

Embracing technology in mental health care can enhance access and engagement. We carefully introduce digital tools—such as apps for mood tracking or teletherapy platforms—always ensuring your privacy and comfort are respected. These tools serve as valuable supplements, never replacements, for the therapeutic relationship.

Supporting leadership growth, communication skills, and professional identity

For practitioners and professionals, evolving in leadership and communication can be complex. We provide reflective coaching and tailored workshops that foster clarity, confidence, and effective interpersonal connections, supporting your growth in roles of influence and care.

Providing LGBTQ+ affirmative counselling

We are committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where your gender identity and sexual orientation are embraced without reservation. Whether you’re exploring your identity, navigating family or societal challenges, or seeking gender-affirming support, we walk alongside you with warmth, pride, and understanding.

Exploring the psychological and ethical aspects of emerging technologies

New technologies in mental health evoke curiosity and concerns alike. We offer thoughtful, transparent discussions about AI, neuroimaging, and digital innovations, helping you understand their benefits, boundaries, and privacy considerations to empower informed choices in your care.

Promoting well-being, resilience skills, and recovery from burnout

Life’s pressures may leave you depleted and overwhelmed. Together, we cultivate self-kindness, practical stress management techniques, and mindfulness practices tailored to your lifestyle, guiding you back toward balance, vitality, and a deeper connection to what brings you fulfilment.

Offering trauma-informed, culturally sensitive therapy for immigrants and refugees

The process of migration and resettlement often carries trauma, loss, and cultural dislocation. We provide a respectful, trauma-aware environment that values your cultural identity and supports your adaptation journey, helping you rebuild safety, community, and identity in a new home.

Treating obsessive-compulsive and related disorders

Intrusive thoughts and compulsions can be distressing and disruptive. Using evidence-based therapies such as Exposure and Response Prevention, alongside empathy and patience, we support you to regain control and reduce anxiety in a collaborative and safe therapeutic relationship.

Helping clients cope with chronic pain and end-of-life concerns

Chronic pain and facing life’s final stages present profound challenges. We offer holistic psychological support, combining pain management strategies, acceptance, and meaning-making therapies designed to enhance comfort, dignity, and emotional wellbeing in these difficult times.

Providing psychotherapy (individual, family, group) and psychological preparation for surgery

We tailor therapeutic approaches to best suit your preferences—whether one-on-one, with family involvement, or in group settings. For those preparing for surgery or medical treatments, we offer emotional preparation and anxiety reduction techniques, helping you embark on your health journey with greater ease and resilience.

Supporting individuals with early psychosis and schizophrenia

Early signs of psychosis can be confusing and alarming both to individuals and their families. Our approach offers compassionate, evidence-informed care focused on stabilisation, education, social skills development, and maintaining hope, facilitating recovery and reintegration into the community.

Assessment and therapy for sleep disturbances and insomnia

Poor sleep can affect every aspect of life. We explore underlying issues and teach evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), relaxation techniques, and good sleep hygiene practices, aiming to restore restful, refreshing sleep.
