THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES USED
PYSCHODYNAMIC
Descending from Freud’s psychoanalytic approach, psychodynamic helps you to understand how your current feelings and behaviour are shaped by your past experiences and your unconscious mind and impulses
TIme-Limited
Time-limited therapy has a much tighter focus and targets a specific problem or psychological issue that is current and in the `here and now’. This type of therapy has focused goals and is a collaborative process between therapist and client
ATTACHMENT
Attachment-based therapy is an approach to therapy that specifically targets those thoughts, feelings, communications and behaviours that clients have learned either to suppress or amplify due to early attachment experiences
CBT
Goal-oriented therapy focusing on thoughts, behaviours and actions, helping the client to “reprogramme” negative thought patterns. Can be effective in treating anxiety, addictions, OCD
GESTALT THERAPY
Focusing on the client in the present moment, Gestalt focuses on how we are influenced by our environment. The whole of anything is greater than its parts, and so the mind, body and emotion are intertwined
HUMANISTIC
Carl Rogers developed humanistic therapy- where the therapist focuses on the client’s needs without structure or direction; the client sets the pace and tone of the work
“I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence but it comes from within. it is there all the time”
Anna Freud
