Family dynamics play an important part in the emotional health and wellbeing of individuals and groups. Given the intimate nature of families, external assistance can be invaluable in helping to identify and resolve issues affecting one or all family members. The focus is mainly on relationships and issues within the family unit and sometimes, the number of people involved in therapy can change from session to session.

Cassandra provides a structured and supportive environment for family members of all ages to work through issues constructively, focussing on solutions.

Issues that can affect the family unit include:

• Parental separation or divorce
• FIFO parenting
• Different styles of parenting
• Behavioural issues in children that require a consistent management approach
• A breakdown in extended family dynamics

Cassandra can also provide general parenting support as she knows it's the toughest job in the world!

Relationship Counselling:

Even the best long term relationships can be challenged by internal and external pressures that can have profound effects on the way in which couples interact. They can include problems at work, financial difficulties, stress, parenting issues, infidelity and mental health issues. It could simply be that you are having trouble communicating effectively or maybe you've just forgotten what it feels like to love and be loved.

Couples therapy can often make one or both people feel uncomfortable. By developing a good rapport with her clients and injecting warmth and humour into the discussion, Cassandra provides couples the tools to trust and communicate with each other in a fair, balanced and supportive manner.
