With compassion at the forefront of her sessions, Ciji is a kind and caring therapist. Taking a special interest in working with couples, Ciji’s ethos to her therapy is your “relationship” is her client, not the individuals.

The need to bond with another human being is fundamental to our survival and the core of her therapeutic interventions. Relationships sees relationships as durable and malleable and offers hope and insight to her clients.
