Empowering You: Individual Therapy for Adults

Feeling lost, overwhelmed, or simply stuck? You’re not alone. At Autumn Psychology, we offer individual therapy services to adults aged 25+ seeking to navigate life’s challenges and cultivate a sense of well-being.

Delene fosters a warm and collaborative environment where you can feel safe to explore your experiences and develop a deeper understanding of yourself. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Delene works collaboratively with you to set goals and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
