We all accumulate disturbing experiences in our lives, some of which are blind spots which can cause psychological, emotional and mental distress. These stresses may manifest in psychosomatic symptoms such as headaches, stomach pain, chronic fatigue, tension and other types of distressing bodily experiences as well as behavioural and relationship problems.

At Psynergy Consultancy, we engage in counselling and psychotherapy to enable individuals to tap into resilient and adaptive resources that are inherent.  We practice an integrated approach to personal empowerment and self-directed neuroplasticity.  This enables individuals to tap into neurological resources that rewires the brain and contribute to cognitive, affective and behavioural adaptations. We help Individuals to be equipped with therapeutic tools which they can access and utilise on an ongoing basis to regain balance and strength.

Difficulties which people face may be related to family or relationship issues, workplace issues, a personal crisis, an ongoing situation that has become untenable or life transitions. Our therapists help people deal with a wide range of issues including:
