What’s the difference between short-term counselling/therapy/coaching and long-term counselling/therapy/coaching? Do you offer both?

Yes — I offer both short-term, solution-focused counselling/therapy/coaching and long-term, ongoing counselling/thrapy/coaching for individuals and couples.

Short-term counselling/therapy/coaching typically focuses on a specific goal, challenge, or area of stress. This approach is often structured and time-limited (e.g., 6–12 sessions), and is ideal for:

• Making a decision or navigating a life transition

• Addressing communication breakdowns in a relationship

• Managing situational anxiety or stress

• Creating strategies and tools to cope with an immediate issue

• Healing Trauma and finding regulation in the nervous system

Long-term counselling/therapy/coaching is more open-ended and depth-oriented. It supports you over time as you:

• Explore past experiences, emotional patterns, or attachment wounds

• Work with chronic issues like burnout, trauma, or self-worth

• Deepen your relationship with yourself and others

• Grow through life stages, personal evolution, or spiritual inquiry

Both approaches are valuable — and sometimes clients begin with short-term work and decide to continue longer-term as deeper layers unfold.

Whether you're looking for brief, focused support or a sustained therapeutic relationship, we can structure our work together to best fit your needs.
