12 Points Psychology
Therapy for Adults
Therapy is an opportunity to understand yourself, gain new perspectives, and build a life that feels more aligned with who you are and what you want. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or just need a space to work things through, we’re here to support you.
Life Has Its Challenges. You Don’t Have to Navigate Them Alone.
Think of therapy like swimming lessons—it’s much easier to learn before you find yourself in the deep end. If you’re already in over your head, therapy can absolutely help you stay afloat—but it takes a lot of energy, and it’s hard to enjoy life when you’re just trying not to sink.
Too often, people wait until they’re completely overwhelmed, burnt out, or at breaking point before seeking support. But therapy doesn’t have to be a last resort. It’s a space to develop skills, gain clarity, and feel more confident in managing life’s challenges—before they become unmanageable.
At 12 Points Psychology, we offer a safe, validating, and practical approach to therapy, helping you work through what’s on your mind—whether that’s stress, anxiety, burnout, relationships, identity, or simply feeling stuck.
Reasons You Might Consider Therapy
People come to therapy for all kinds of reasons. You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit. Therapy is for anyone who wants to:
✔ Reduce stress, anxiety, or overwhelm and develop strategies to manage life’s demands more effectively.
✔ Work through low mood, self-doubt, or a general sense of feeling stuck.
✔ Navigate big life transitions, such as career shifts, relationship changes, or adjusting to parenthood or a difficult diagnosis/health condition.
✔ Process past experiences or trauma and understand how they might still be affecting the present.
✔ Improve relationships, whether with partners, family members, friends or even work colleagues.
✔ Understand their neurodivergence (such as ADHD or autism) and explore how to work with their brain, not against it.
✔ Explore identity, values, and personal growth in a way that feels meaningful.
Whatever is bringing you here, therapy provides a space to reflect, gain insight, and move forward in a way that works for you.
Our Approach – Practical, Supportive, and Tailored to You
We know therapy can feel intimidating at first. That’s why we focus on creating a warm, non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, reflect deeply, and gain useful tools that actually help.
Our approach is:
✔ Neuroaffirming & Trauma-Informed – We work with, not against, how your brain is wired.
✔ Flexible & Individualised – Some people prefer structured, goal-oriented therapy; others need an open space to process. We adapt to your needs.
✔ Evidence-Based & Practical – We use approaches that are grounded in research and experience, ensuring therapy is meaningful and applicable.
✔ Collaborative & Respectful – You’re the expert in your own life. We’re here to support, not dictate.
Therapy isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. We tailor our work to what feels most helpful and relevant to you. We draw from a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns.
-
Schema Therapy
Understanding deeper emotional patterns and unmet needs.
-
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Learning how to work with difficult thoughts and feelings.
-
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Supporting trauma processing and emotional healing.
-
Strengths-Based & Neuroaffirming Approaches
Recognising individual differences and building on existing skills.

What to Expect When You Contact Us
If you’re considering therapy, the first step is to get in touch. You can either complete our Online Intake Form or give us a call—whichever feels easiest for you.
One of our highly trained admin team (who have a deep understanding of our clinicians and therapy options) will reach out via phone or email to:
✔ Listen to your concerns and gain insight into what’s been happening.
✔ Explore what kind of support might be most helpful based on your needs and preferences.
✔ Chat with you about our available therapists and help you decide on the best fit.
If therapy feels like the right step, we’ll book an initial session with one of our clinicians. Some people come for short-term support, while others prefer a longer-term therapeutic relationship. There is no right or wrong way to do therapy—just what works for you.
Important Information About Our Services
At 12 Points Psychology, our focus is on providing therapeutic support rather than assessments or legal reports. This means:
✔ We do not provide court reports or formal assessments.
✔ We do not see individuals who are mandated to attend therapy.
✔ If you require paperwork, such as an SEA (Special Consideration) application or supporting documentation for other services, we typically require a minimum of three sessions before we have enough information to complete the form.
Any paperwork that needs to be completed outside of session incurs an additional fee, as this work takes time outside of our regular therapeutic sessions. If you have specific documentation needs, feel free to discuss them with us—we’re happy to clarify what we can provide and any associated costs.
We appreciate your understanding and are here to support you in the ways that best align with our therapeutic services.
