Hi, I'm Libby Baensch
My passion to become a Relationship Therapist began with experiencing my own relational trauma and brokeness............and finding that healing, personal restoration and growth are possible, and so worth doing!
We all have issues we struggle with at times, especially relational ones. I love being able to help my clients feel safe enough to see what is happening, within themselves and their relationships, and to work towards the healing and relationships they desire.

My therapy style is client focused (what my clients want, and who they are, is at the centre of my work with them), integrated (I put together a mix of therapies that best suit my clients), systemic (people are not islands, those we live with, grew up with, really do matter, they affect us, and we them), attachment based (the idea that our need to feel safe and secure with those closest to us really, really matters, without it we are in distress, and this explains a lot!), experiential (together we notice what you are feeling and experiencing in the moment) and trauma immersed (I understand the impact of trauma on a person, and engage with all my clients in a way that promotes a sense of safety and empowerment).
I respectfully engage with clients from all walks of life and faiths. As a Christian, I have understanding, experience and Biblical training which some of my clients find deeply beneficial in processing life, relationships, sex, identity and emotional pain. When I'm not working I enjoy immersing myself in nature, watching sunrises, travelling, and time with my special loved ones.
