Our approaches

PSYCHODYNAMICS

Psychodynamics believes that our early relationships shape who we are today.  It studies the psychological forces that underlie human behaviour, feelings, and emotions and how they might relate to early experience.  Digging deeper into our past, the unconscious and the conscious mind.

HUMANISTIC – PERSON CENTRED

Using Carl Rogers Humanistic Person-Centred approach based on the belief that the client is unique, inherently good and can change.  Person-centred psychotherapy places the client at the centre of counselling and treated as a person first and foremost.  

Our focus is always on the person and what they can do, not their condition or disability.  Support is focused on achieving the client’s aspiration, tailored to their needs and unique circumstances.  Enabling the individual to build and keep control of their life.  Valuing the uniqueness and potential of each person and the belief that we all can adapt and change throughout our lifetime.

NLP

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) uses a variety of techniques.  It’s a gentle non-intrusive therapy used to treat phobias and trauma, including PTSD.  It allows individuals to reprocess distressing memories in a safe, relaxed state, without revisiting full emotional pain.  Effective and fast-acting, it helps reduce anxiety and emotional triggers, restoring calm and emotional control.

NLP helps  change unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviours by using language to reframe how we think and respond.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured therapy helping people process traumatic memories. It uses guided eye movements and or tapping to reduce emotional distress and supports healing from PTSD anxiety, and phobias.
