Therapies Offered

A dynamic and inclusive approach to mental health support that combines insights and techniques from multiple therapeutic perspectives. It acknowledges that each individual is unique, with distinct needs and experiences, and thus advocates for a flexible and personalised treatment approach. By integrating elements from various theories and practices such as cognitive-behavioural therapy, psychodynamic therapy, humanistic therapy, mindfulness, and more, integrative therapists strive to create a holistic framework that can effectively address the complexities of human psychology and behaviour. This approach fosters collaboration between therapist and client, empowering individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. Through this collaborative process, clients can gain deeper self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

A humanistic approach to therapy that prioritises the individual's innate capacity for self-understanding and growth. In this approach, the therapist creates a safe, non-judgmental environment where the client feels free to explore their feelings, experiences, and concerns. The therapist adopts an empathetic and genuine stance, seeking to understand the client's perspective without imposing their own interpretations or advice. Central to person-centred counselling is the belief in the client's ability to find their own solutions and make positive changes in their lives. Through active listening, reflection, and unconditional positive regard, the therapist supports the client in gaining insight, self-acceptance, and autonomy, ultimately empowering them to move towards greater self-actualization and well-being.

A therapeutic approach that explores how unconscious thoughts, emotions, and early life experiences influence current behaviours and patterns. Developed from Freudian psychoanalysis, psychodynamic therapy focuses on uncovering and understanding the root causes of psychological distress. Through a collaborative relationship between therapist and client, the therapy aims to bring unconscious conflicts and dynamics into conscious awareness. By examining past experiences, interpersonal relationships, and defense mechanisms, clients gain insight into their patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating to others. This increased self-awareness allows clients to make meaningful changes, resolve inner conflicts, and develop healthier coping mechanisms, ultimately fostering personal growth and emotional well-being.

Blending elements of traditional therapy with coaching principles to help individuals achieve personal and professional goals while addressing emotional and psychological challenges. Unlike traditional therapy, which may focus primarily on past experiences and emotional healing, therapeutic coaching emphasizes present action, goal-setting, and skill-building. Therapeutic coaches provide guidance, support, and accountability as clients work towards their desired outcomes, whether it's improving relationships, managing stress, or enhancing overall well-being. Drawing from various therapeutic modalities and coaching techniques, therapeutic coaches empower clients to overcome obstacles, gain clarity, and create positive change in their lives.

Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that utilizes creative expression as a means of communication and healing. Through various art mediums such as drawing, painting, sculpting, and collage-making, individuals are encouraged to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a non-verbal and symbolic way. The process of creating art under the guidance of a trained art therapist can help individuals gain insight into their feelings, increase self-awareness, and develop coping strategies. Art therapy can be particularly beneficial for those who find it difficult to express themselves verbally or for individuals struggling with issues such as trauma, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. By engaging in the creative process, clients can tap into their inner resources, process difficult emotions, and foster personal growth and healing.
