What is Systemic Therapy
Systemic therapy is a form of psychotherapy that looks at relationships and experiences that shape how we think, feel and behave. Rather than viewing difficulty as something that sits entirely within one person, systemic therapy considers what is happening around the person - in work, family life and the wider relational network.
Systemic therapy explores patterns of communication, underlying beliefs, and relational dynamics that have developed over time, how people respond to each other and why certain difficulties feel hard to change.
Whether you are facing challenges in your personal life, relationships, or family dynamics, Kathy offers a compassionate and collaborative approach to finding new ways of relating and creating meaningful change.
Private Social Work Service
Kathy offers practical and emotional support to help individuals and families navigate challenging life circumstances. This might include assistance with health and social service applications, understanding and adjusting to a mental health diagnosis and coping with significant changes in life such as a relative developing long term care needs. She aims to help make sense of what is happening and identify ongoing supports to manage the practical aspects of change.
