Our Approach to Individual and Couples Therapy
Individual Therapy Tailored to You
Individual Therapy Designed for You
We know that everyone’s journey is different. That’s why our individual therapy sessions are tailored to meet your needs. Using Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), our therapists work with you to understand the root causes of ongoing challenges—whether that’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or difficulty managing emotions. Schema Therapy, in particular, can help identify early life patterns that still affect you today and guide you toward meaningful, long-term change.
Strengthening Relationships with Couples Therapy
For couples in Townsville wanting to rebuild trust, revive intimacy, or resolve recurring conflicts, our Gottman Couples Therapy is a proven approach. Whether through intensive marathon sessions or regular weekly counselling, our psychologists help you explore relationship dynamics, improve communication, and strengthen emotional bonds.
Strengthening Connections Through Couples Therapy
Couples in Townsville seeking to revive intimacy, rebuild trust, or resolve recurring conflict can benefit from our Gottman Couples Therapy—a well-researched and highly effective method. Whether you choose marathon sessions or regular weekly couples counselling, our trained psychologists guide you through understanding dynamics, improving communication, and reinforcing emotional bonds.
