Couples TherapyCouple therapy is not easy, but it is always thought provoking and emotionally engaging as you grow to understand the feelings and thoughts reflected in your own behaviour and of your partner. Making a commitment to examine what you each bring as individuals to the couple dynamic and how you are functioning as partners provides an opportunity to build or repair a deep and lasting bond.I can help you:

Family TherapyEvery family goes through ups and downs in life. Family problems can manifest in the healthiest of families, resulting in challenging, frustrating, and painful interactions among family members. From little irritations to buried resentments, from dramatic arguments to feelings of guilt, disconnection, helplessness, hopelessness, disappointment, and anger we did not even know we had, our families often bring up the most intense emotions we experience, for better or worse.Whether your family is struggling with relational concerns, communication difficulties, behavioural problems, divorce/separation, grief/loss, depression/anxiety, addiction, parenting/co-parenting concerns, or a combination of stressors, family therapy can help.  |
My Counselling ApproachMy approach to treatment is integrative: I don’t have a “one size fits all” philosophy, I draw on a cross section of eclectic therapies, incorporating classical, modern and creative therapies. I have developed and implemented highly successful social skills / anger management interventions and programs, to help children, teens, adults, couples and families change the way they relate to themselves and others.My 8 years at Massey University and the global academic research validates the wide range of therapies and modalities I use in my practice. It depends on the clients wishes, my purpose is to ‘walk alongside’ my clients, to allow self discovery on many levels (physical to spiritual), for them to create their personal therapy experience. |

About SteveI have been in professional practice since 2000 and have facilitated a wide range of groups including Anger Management Groups for over 13 years. In my professional work having my own practice allows me the flexibility to be able to contract to other agencies (i.e. ManAlive) through QVTP. This contracted work has included working in schools, providing group and 1:1 therapy sessions for youth. I have also facilitated my own written programmes for both youth and adults for external agencies and QVTP.Besides my experience as a Social Worker and Counsellor, I am a father of three boys and grandfather (more than once) and have been in multicultural relationships most of my life. I am also a Tradesman Cabinetmaker, who has been a foreman and factory manager. As an enthusiastic musician, composer and producer of my own and others music (therapeutically and socially), I bring these skills into my therapy. I have participated in martial arts and alternative healing life skills on my life’s journey. |
