Trauma Therapy
Because life is unpredictable and often out of your control, traumatic experiences can occur without warning. Traumatic experiences can also occur even with plenty of warning, it’s just an inevitable part of life. Things like abuse, assault, death, loss of loved ones, relationships and careers, health and natural disasters are all examples of traumatic experiences, often leaving individuals feeling helpless, isolated and feeling alone.
Professional Supervision
When a counsellor or a counselling or social work student is ‘working under supervision’, it means they are using the services of another more experienced counsellor to review their practice with clients. Supervision is used to grow a counsellor both ethically, professionally and personally.
Sex & Relationship Counselling
If your relationship is experiencing some challenges, it might be useful to attend couple’s counselling/relationship therapy. As a qualified Relationship and Sex Therapist, Amanda offers a professional space for individuals and couples to seek support, improve their relationships, self and sexual identities and resolve any conflict or challenges in a way which will bring clients closer.
