A range of supports for individuals

Step toward the life you want.

 

Life is rarely as straightforward as we hope. Even our best efforts can be derailed by events, circumstances, and challenges in our relationships, which can all feel like they’re actively working against us. Sometimes, we can even feel betrayed by our own thoughts and actions.

Individual counselling with Vanessa provides a safe space to explore the areas of your life that you want to change and help you live your life confidently and in a way that feels most authentic to you. She will work with you to identify where you are and where you would like to be and then create a road map to help you get there.

What you can expect at an appointment

All appointments are delivered online or by phone, but you can expect the same approach as an in-person appointment. Counselling sessions with Vanessa are co-created. You’ll help shape and focus the discussions as Vanessa draws from different therapies to support you in working toward your goals.

You can find more detailed information on the General and Virtual Counselling FAQ pages.

Individual and couples counselling

If you’re facing challenges in your relationship, it can be tough to know whether individual or couples/relationship counselling would be most beneficial. If you’re wondering which kind of appointment to book, start where you’re most comfortable. Vanessa can begin working with you as an individual, and if there is partner work that would help, she can see you together.
