Roxie’s focus is to help individuals become aware of their own strengths and to accept the challenges in their lives. She achieves this by providing a safe space, listening to your concerns, and developing a holistic therapeutic plan to promote well-being.
Depression, grief and loss, and anxiety are common emotional challenges that we may experience at some time in our lives. Talking to a psychologist enables us to work together, in a trusting relationship, to understand what is happening in your life and to gain a perspective on how you may improve the quality of your life.
Some individuals may experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger causing post traumatic symptoms. Roxie offers help for you to overcome these symptoms and guides you through a process towards healing.
Relationship counselling may be beneficial to couples who are looking to strengthen their emotional connection, in all stages of their relationship. Therapy sessions may initially be with each individual followed by joint (couple/family) sessions.
Psychological consultation to schools, organisations and communities offers a greater understanding of challenging situations and promotes more peaceful and harmonious work and school environments.
Professional development training to teachers and schools with regards to students with challenging behaviours.
Roxie also offers Professional Supervision including external supervision for Psychology Interns.
