Working Together

Counselling provides dedicated time to explore what is really important for you to thrive in your own body, life and relationships.

This will be different for everyone. You will be guided as the expert, and together, we work towards therapeutically reinforcing your strengths using evidence-based approaches to develop your skills, support with psycho-education and give you space to talk and explore. I work with you to understand and meet your individual and unique needs.

Client Reviews

My anxiety was so bad I couldn’t go to work, go out with friends, go down to the shops, I felt trapped. I would get everyone to do everything for me because the anxiety was paralysing. I couldn’t understand what was going on, I wasn’t always this way, what happened, when? So many unanswered questions. I am now anxiety free, have a job and a great social life again.

Struggling, with everything and not knowing why, frustrated, angry, depressed, hurt, unmotivated, overweight. I was always losing jobs, friends, relationships because of my anger and frustration, didn’t want counselling but work made me do it. Glad they did because I am a completely different person, happy, healthy, still employed, have friends, just need a girlfriend now, and I’m confident I’ll get one.

I had no idea how to fix my marriage, I didn’t want to lose my wife, so I turned to counselling for help. I’m glad I did it. My marriage is now better than it ever was, my wife and I are in a good place. Counselling with Julie was the best thing I did, for myself, and for my marriage.

We were struggling with sex and intimacy in our marriage. Julie helped us understand why this was happening and how to change it, we are no longer struggling in these areas of our marriage.

Thanks to Julie I am in a much better place than I have ever been. I no longer have depression and now understand where it was coming from and why it was there. I have been on anti-depressants for a couple of years but no longer feel I need them. Julie advised me to work with my doctor to stop taking my medication. I feel better than I have in a long time.

I’m so glad I talked with Julie, my relationship was falling apart, I knew I needed to make some changes but didn’t know how or where to start. It was hard and sometimes I wanted to quit, but with encouragement from Julie I continued and can honestly say I’m glad I took that first step to counselling because I am better as a person and my relationship is back on track again.
