Therapeutic Treatments
I am a depth- psychotherapist who uses the following approaches :
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy & Cognitive Therapy: Identifying and shifting unhelpful cognitive patterns, looks at the role your thinking and belief systems have on your life. Using a depth- therapy approach, we will identify and explore your core beliefs and worldviews, and consider them from a historical perspective.
Psychodynamic Therapy: Incorporates the approaches of Freud, Jung, and their followers. Looks deep into one's psyche and identifies the unconscious and root causes of an ongoing condition or situation. Considers the role of early childhood dynamics and its impact on adult life. Identifies historical patterns occurring in your life, what brought them about, and how to shift them.
Jungian Approaches: Includes exploration of the meaning of dreams. Looks at the unconscious in terms of the shadow and how it may be manifesting in either your conscious life or dream life. Exploration of personality and archetypes that may be surfacing for you will be considered. This approach focuses on bringing unconscious factors to light to support personal healing. Art therapy and clinical counselling hypnotherapy are optional psychotherapeutic exercises stemming from a Jungian approach.
Emotion- Focused Therapy: Enhances your emotional intelligence, which can help you in: problem solving, managing behaviour, and working through emotions or intense states. This approach is helpful in getting at a deeper level of self connection and helps develop a greater felt sense of wholeness within oneself. Emotion- focused therapy is an evidence-based approach used in both individual therapy and couples therapy. In couples therapy the approach is focused on creating a stronger sense of connection and bonding.
