The My Therapy difference
Because the fight doesn’t stop when the session ends.
- Healing happens in your everyday life — not just in the therapy room.
- Access to Therapist in Your Pocket through your chosen support plan.
- Practical tools and resources tailored to your journey.
- Track your progress with tangible, data-driven results.
- Therapeutic prompts, worksheets and insights for reflection.
- We believe a patient can’t fail therapy, but therapy can fail a patient — therefore therapy is tailored around you. You are not forced to fit the textbook.
Our approach
Our unique relationship approach
Rational Intimacy Based Relationship Therapy (RIBRT) — our proven approach for lasting relational change. Specifically developed for last-chance couples — designed to help couples in crisis find hope and a way forward.
- Rational — we examine how partners interpret each other’s behaviour through their own lens of meaning.
- Intimacy — we help couples create a safe emotional space and re-establish emotional connection.
- Relationship — we work with the relationship itself, not only the two individuals in it.
- Therapy — we go deeper than counselling, addressing attachment styles and family-of-origin patterns so the relationship can truly heal.
- The aim is not just to stay together, but to become truly happy together and create a relationship that feels like a safe space.
