Evidence-based treatment that’s goal-oriented

We specialise in a range of therapy styles and techniques including​

EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress, such as PTSD, that are the result of disturbing life experiences, such as sexual assault.  Repeated studies show that by using EMDR therapy, you can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference. It is widely assumed that severe emotional pain requires a long time to heal.  EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma.

Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT for short, is often cited as the gold standard of psychotherapy. Its techniques allow you to identify the negative thought processes that hold you back and exchange them for new, productive ones that can change your life. CBT for PTSD is trauma-focussed, meaning the trauma events are the centre of the treatment.

Solution-focused therapy

Solution–Focused Therapy is an approach that empowers you to own your abilities in solving life’s problems. SFT allows for a goal-oriented focus to problem-solving, which places focus on your present and future circumstances and goals rather than traditional psychotherapy that focuses on how a problem was derived from past experiences.

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)

Closely connected to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), ACT is an evidence-based therapy that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies mixed in with commitment and behaviour-changing strategies to help you increase your psychological flexibility in both your personal and professional life.

Positive psychology

Positive psychology is a branch of psychology focused on building on character strengths instead of weaknesses. This allows you to build a life of meaning and purpose—to move beyond surviving to flourishing. It is built on five core elements: positive emotions, engagement, interest, meaning, and purpose.

Pain management

Thoughts, feelings and behaviours play a large role in the suffering that accompanies chronic pain. Properly addressing these can go a long way in relieving a large amount of suffering. One way to do this is by educating you to challenge any unhelpful thoughts you have about pain. In some cases, lifestyle changes or distracting yourself from pain is helpful. In other cases, developing new ways to perceive your pain is effective. Studies have found that some psychotherapy can be as effective as surgery for relieving chronic pain.

Addiction management

Addiction comes in many forms and can significantly distress and compromise our sense of wellbeing, our physical health, as well as family and social relationships. Counselling can help one identify the underlying cause of their addiction and to develop an acceptance and understanding that can help individuals to build coping strategies, improve self-control and decrease the likelihood of a relapse. Working together with partners and family members may also prove to be beneficial in addressing addiction.

Anger management

Anger is a healthy human emotion when it is correctly managed, and can be used to create good outcomes, for example being assertive or setting boundaries, without any intentions of harm to another. However, it can create a variety of problems when it’s not well managed. The goal of anger management is to reduce both your emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. You can’t get rid of, or avoid, the things or the people that enrage you, nor can you change them, but you can learn to control your reactions.

Marriage and family therapy

Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT). This form of psychotherapy addresses the behaviours of all family members and the way these behaviours affect not only individual family members but also relationships between family members and the family unit as a whole. As such, treatment is usually divided between time spent on individual therapy and time spent on couple therapy, family therapy, or both, if necessary.

Group therapy

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that involves one or more therapists working with several people at the same time. Many groups are designed to target a specific problem, such as depression, obesity, panic disorder, social anxiety, chronic pain or substance abuse. Other groups focus more generally on improving social skills, helping you deal with a range of issues such as anger, shyness, loneliness and low self-esteem.
