Individual therapy offers time to make sense of what is weighing on you and decide what you want to change. Together we explore your thoughts, your feelings, relationships and recurring patterns, with practical support that fits your circumstances and goals.

You might seek support for:

• Anxiety, panic and persistent worry

• Depression, low motivation and self-worth

• Health-related worries and adjustment to chronic illness

• Grief, loss and difficult life changes

• Emotional eating and patterns around food

• Burnout, boundaries and feeling overwhelmed

Therapy can offer space to slow things down, gain perspective and begin making changes that feel manageable.

When conversations keep ending in conflict or distance, it can be difficult to know how to reconnect. Couples therapy offers a place to understand the patterns between you, talk about difficult issues and consider what each of you needs moving forward.

Sessions may focus on:

• Communication, recurring conflict and emotional connection

• Trust and recovery after an affair

• Desire differences and intimacy concerns

• Premarital preparation

• Uncertainty about staying together or separating

Whether you are working to reconnect, rebuild trust, or decide what comes next, therapy can provide space for clearer, more honest conversations. If you are navigating a breakup, separation or divorce on your own, individual support is also available.

Discernment Counselling is a short-term approach (1-5 sessions) designed for couples who are uncertain about the future of their relationship, particularly when one partner is leaning toward separation or divorce and the other hopes to preserve the relationship.

Unlike traditional couples therapy, the immediate goal is not to repair the relationship. The focus is on helping both partners gain greater clarity and confidence about what comes next, while developing a deeper understanding of what has happened in the relationship, and each partner’s contribution to the difficulties.

Together we consider the possible paths forward: remaining in the relationship as things are for now, moving toward separation or divorce, or committing to a focused period of couples therapy to work on the relationship.

DISCLAIMER: Discernment Counselling may not be appropriate when one partner has already made a final decision to end the relationship, or when there are concerns about safety, coercion or intimate partner violence.

We can discuss whether this approach is a good fit during an initial consultation

Sex therapy provides a private, non-judgmental space to talk openly about sexual concerns that can be difficult to discuss elsewhere. Individuals and couples may seek support for low or mismatched desire, changes in arousal, erectile difficulties, orgasm concerns, sexual confidence, changes related to menopause or aging, and feeling disconnected from sex or intimacy.

We can also work on communication about sex, rebuilding intimacy after conflict or an affair, understanding patterns that affect desire and connection, and finding ways to create a more satisfying sexual relationship. When physical symptoms may need medical assessment, therapy can work alongside care from your healthcare provider.

Perimenopause and menopause can bring changes in mood, sleep, concentration, confidence, sexual desire and how you feel about yourself. Alongside physical symptoms such as hot flashes and disrupted sleep, you may notice more anxiety, irritability, low mood, brain fog or simply a sense that you don’t quite feel like yourself.

At the same time, midlife can bring changes in relationships, intimacy, body image, work, caregiving and questions about what you want the next stage of your life to look like. Carrying all of that at once can feel surprisingly overwhelming.

Therapy can help you make sense of what is changing, manage the emotional impact, communicate what you need, strengthen boundaries and reconnect with what matters to you. Our focus is on the emotional, psychological and relationship aspects of menopause and midlife, alongside any medical care you may be receiving.

Difficult or overwhelming experiences can continue to affect you long after the event itself has passed. You may notice anxiety, feeling constantly on edge, intrusive memories, avoidance, irritability, emotional numbness, trouble sleeping, or strong reactions that seem hard to control.

Therapy can help you understand how those experiences are still showing up in your thoughts, emotions, relationships and everyday life. The goal is not to force you to relive what happened, but to help reduce the distress connected to it and support a greater sense of safety, steadiness and control.

Where appropriate, we may use Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR) or Life Stress Reduction (LSR) as part of our work. We talk through what these approaches involve, whether they fit your needs, and proceed at a pace that feels manageable.

Hypnotherapy uses guided attention, relaxation and imagery as part of a collaborative therapeutic process. Before beginning, we discuss what you would like to work on, what a session involves and whether this approach fits your needs.

Each session is individually tailored to your goals and may be used as a stand-alone therapeutic intervention or alongside other therapeutic approaches. You remain aware and in full control throughout the process and can pause or stop at any time.

At Un/Stuck, hypnotherapy is used as a therapeutic tool within psychotherapy sessions and may be integrated into work around anxiety, stress, emotional patterns, confidence, or other agreed treatment goals. We do not offer stand-alone smoking cessation or weight-loss hypnosis.

There is no single approach that fits everyone. We choose therapeutic methods based on what you are struggling with, what feels comfortable to you, and what you hope to change.

Our work may draw from:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to understand patterns in thoughts, emotions and behaviour and develop more helpful ways of responding.

• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to explore emotional needs, attachment and relationship patterns.

• Grief counselling for loss, change and the impact grief can have on identity and everyday life.

• Craving Change to better understand emotional eating, recognize triggers and develop practical coping strategies.

Other specialized approaches, including Traumatic Incident Reduction, Life Stress Reduction, Discernment Counseling and Hypnotherapy, are described separately because they are used for more specific concerns.

Therapy needs to fit the reality of your life. We work with people who may be navigating ADHD-related challenges, developmental disabilities, caregiving responsibilities, chronic stress, overworking, or the pressure of trying to manage too many roles at once.

We can adapt the pace, communication style and practical strategies we use so therapy feels relevant and manageable. Our goal is to understand what is making day-to-day life harder and help you find approaches that work with your circumstances rather than against them.
