Margie Stuchbery is a counseling psychologist with a background in medical and health sciences. Margie uses an empathic approach to keep people safe while they explore alternative ways of experiencing, living and relating. Margie works with people to develop a warm, safe therapeutic relationship where emotional and relational difficulties can be explored and a greater understanding of oneself develop.

Margie has particular experience in working with people who have suffered from depression, anxiety and relationship difficulties. As an adjunct to individual therapy, Margie can offer a family systems approach to resolving and transforming family relationships, even after one has left home! This systems approach is useful for managing all relationships, including those in the workplace, where power in relationships can exert a negative impact on emotional wellbeing.

Margie has also had many years of experience working with families, particularly those where a parent suffers from postnatal depression. Drawing on this experience Margie conducts workshops, writes papers, prepares educational materials and gives conference presentations on postnatal depression, parenting and the mother-infant relationship. Margie has specialist training in family therapy, mother-infant relationship therapy and psychotherapy.

Margie provides individual, couple and family therapy and clinical supervision.
