• Interpersonal & relationship difficulties

COUPLES counselling
Marriage isn't for sissies. It is challenging, and no matter how much people love one another, we so easily get caught in destructive patterns that become difficult to break.
Bad communication habits are often at the core of relationship difficulties and the reason why partners often miss each other. Therefore the goal of couples/marriage counselling is to identify the difficulties, needs and destructive patterns between partners, and to change them! Couples or marriage counseling can be an effective way to break out of these negative communication cycles and address specific relationship obstacles.

TRAUMA counselling
We live in a world where we are all at risk of being exposed to a traumatic event. We would like to think that it won’t happen to us, but in reality many people are affected by the evils of this world. Trauma refers to the body or mind being overwhelmed by traumatic events. Psychological trauma in particular occurs as a result of a distressing event that leads the sufferer to question their beliefs; while destroying their assumptions of trust.
If you have experienced a traumatic event, you may feel socially disconnected and somewhat numb, leading to feelings of isolation. On top of this, you may find yourself feeling more afraid and vulnerable than before the event. Trauma counselling will not be able to reverse what happened to you, but it enables you to work through PSTD symptoms in a safe and contained space with a trained and experienced professional.

FAMILY therapy
We can never escape our families. Many famous psychologists have written about the importance of family influence, attachment styles, and the impact of our formative years on subsequent development. Every family has both immense strengths and weaknesses. However, it is often the weaknesses of a family system that perpetuate ineffective interactional patterns.
These ineffective patterns do not only play out in our family systems, but in all other systems in our lives. Think of your family system as the blue-print for your life – for how you see yourself, for how you see the world, and for how you interact with other people. If there are flaws in your blue-print, you need to correct them. Even if there weren’t flaws in your blue-print, it might need updating based on your current circumstances or change in roles. Family therapy allows you the opportunity to explore this blue-print – to cherish the parts that helped you grow, and discard or upgrade the parts that have held you back.

CAREER guidance
Selecting your career path is one of the most important decisions you will make. Many people make this decision without accurate knowledge of what the career entails, as well as inaccurate knowledge of where their strengths and weaknesses lie.
A career assessment helps one find the optimum balance between personality, interest, & aptitude when making a career choice. My career guidance process involves:
• A combination of psychometric tests, including personality, interest, and aptitude tests.
• Feedback session with student & parent
• Recommendation on career path
• Workplace readiness

PSYCHOMETRIC & CORPORATE testing
We are all unique and fascinating individuals. The more self-aware we become, the more we are able to recognise and overcome our weaknesses, and optimise on our natural strengths.
Psychometric tests are scientific tools that give you better understanding of the complex and wonderful person you are. Psychological assessments involves the use of standardised tests to gain objective information about a person’s level of intellectual, neurological, emotional, and behavioural functioning. I offer a wide range of psychological assessment that are beneficial for both individuals and corporate teams.
