Why us?

Therapy is not meant to be a one-size fits all type of service.
Taryn and Michelle don't believe in creating an environment where you are viewed as a product.
Their aim is to support you, the beautiful human you are, to achieve whatever goals you might have.

Personalised Experience

All about you! We want you to have a completely unique, individualised experience focused on you as a human.

Northern Star aim to provide an environment that you feel safe and supported in. They are always open and ready for any and all feedback.

Evidence Based Support

Psychology is based in scientific studies on behaviour and the human mind and so we use proven strategies and methods to help you reach your goals.

Remembering always that we adapt this specifically to you, using a range of different strategies until we find things that are helpful and beneficial.

Comfortable, cosy, real humans

Michelle and Taryn aim to provide therapeutic services to humans as humans.

Keeping this in mind, they chose their practice to have a nice homely feeling so its not too terrifying and less clinical in nature.

Services
