Individual Therapy

Maple Tree Counselling offers one-on-one counselling for adults and adolescents (14 and above) seeking reprieve from issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, addiction, compulsions, attention deficit, grief and loss, relationship difficulties and low self-esteem. Many clients may just feel stuck and want to develop a greater self-understanding and facilitate change.

A strong relationship between the therapist and client is one of the most important factors for success. We consider your personal preference, your goals and the experience and special interests of the counsellor in pairing you with someone best suited to your needs. A 15-minute, no-charge pre-screen call will also be scheduled for you or your teen to have a short conversation with the counsellor to ensure the right fit before proceeding.

Our multicultural team includes both counsellors and psychologists, bringing a range of professional backgrounds, experience and areas of expertise to their work. From a client’s perspective, both offer support, exploration, practical strategies and guidance for navigating challenges such as stress, relationships, grief and other life difficulties. Psychologists may also be particularly suited to more complex or acute mental health conditions that require formal diagnosis, psychological assessment or specialised treatment. All our therapists are trained in a range of therapeutic approaches and tailor their work to each individual client. As professional backgrounds and fees vary, we take your preferences, goals and needs into account when helping you find the right fit.
