My approach to therapy is integrative with person centred at the heart. This means I use different modalities integrated within a model called the Connection Model…this is a holistic approach, working on all four aspects of self; Mind, Body, Soul and Emotion.
Person-centred therapy provides an environment for you to reappraise your thoughts, feelings, actions, values and strengths, so that you can understand your situation in your own way, unlock your potential, and overcome your difficulties.
I also work with Gestalt therapy which is a type of humanistic and person-centred therapy that focuses on the immediate here and now and how that can be explored to help you. It looks at how your past affects and influences how you’re feeling in this moment rather than how you felt back then.
CBT: CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a negative cycle. It aims to help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts….
Transpersonal means the individual will typically learn to develop new coping mechanisms to address past and current issues and gain insight into repetitive behaviors. Individuals who wish to become in tune with their spiritual needs can often find solace in this approach with a transpersonal therapist.
