FAQs
We see patients with a wide range of mental health concerns – depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, personality disorders and complex PTSD. In addition, we work with individuals, couples and families.
We are experienced at working with patients with complex conditions, formal DSM 5 diagnoses and comorbidity. We work as part of a team in collaboration with our patient’s GP and psychiatrist.
The main service we provide is psychotherapy which is the basis of our treatment approach. This serves as a useful foundation for meditative practices which can be used in everyday life.
We are happy provide psychotropic medication management for some patients but all our patients are attending primarily for psychotherapeutic treatment.
We do not see patients who have no interest in psychotherapeutic treatment.
However, patients often come to see us when in crisis with no prior knowledge or experience of psychotherapy.
Once they experience the benefits of a ‘talking’ or ‘relationship’ therapy they are able to commit to psychotherapeutic treatment which can include medication management as a secondary element.
