He has additional training and experience in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, couples/marriage counselling, adolescents, Depth Enquiry™, domestic and family violence and mindfulness and meditation.

He is passionate about helping people heal and foster nourishing relationships with themselves and others in order to build full and meaningful lives.

Raph has practiced and studied calm abiding meditation for many years and offers private teachings to his clients as well as weaving mindfulness techniques into the therapy sessions.
