In humanistic and integrative psychotherapy the focus of the approach is how the client experiences the world. The therapist and client work together encompassing the whole person, mind, body and spirit, to explore how a client reacts to their own unique life events. This exploration will be carried out without judgment or direct input, it provides a platform for an individual to identify their own patterns of behaviour that may be hindering their own personal development.

 

Psychodynamic therapy is a therapeutic approach that facilitates the rise of the sub conscious to ones conscious. This form of therapy addresses any painful emotions or hurts that we have buried in our subconscious and gently teases them out to allow them to be faced and explored with the aim of identifying mental and emotional processes that are affecting the decisions we make and how we interact in our relationships.

 

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy or CBT is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on an individual’s way of thinking and how their thoughts affect their behaviours that ultimately impacts on their relationships with others. The aim of this work is to replace maladaptive thought processes with healthier ones to enrich an individual’s life and promote greater enjoyment in their life.

 

All Counselling services are available for individuals who are 18 and older.

 

Reiki is an ancient, non-intrusive, non-religious, complementary therapy developed by a Japanese Buddhist Mikao Usui. The word (Rei) translates as “Universal Life” and the word (Ki) translates as “energy”. Reiki is administered through the application of a light hands-on healing technique. Reiki is becoming a widely more accepted holistic treatment that essentially aims at unblocking the body’s natural healing system and allowing the flow of energy to facilitate boosting the body’s immune system. Reiki has been known to work with the body to increase energy levels, provide a clear mind to help focus on ones life and ultimately aids relaxation to reduce stress. Reiki is a known support in the treatment of Cancer as it compliments conventional treatments.
