ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

ACT, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, is a form of psychotherapy that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies mixed with commitment and behaviour-change strategies. ACT aims to help individuals live a life that aligns with their values while accepting the inevitable challenges and pain that come with it. By focusing on the present moment, ACT encourages clients to embrace their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting against them, enabling them to commit to actions that improve and enrich their lives.

CBT

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a widely recognised, evidence-based therapy that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviours. CBT is highly effective in treating a variety of mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, stress, and more. By working with a trained therapist, individuals learn to challenge distorted thinking, develop healthier thought patterns, and adopt more constructive behaviours, leading to improved emotional and psychological well-being.

CFT

Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) is a therapeutic approach that encourages individuals to develop self-compassion and kindness toward themselves. CFT is particularly useful for people who struggle with high levels of self-criticism, shame, or anxiety. By cultivating self-compassion, clients can reduce negative self-talk, improve emotional resilience, and foster a greater sense of inner peace and emotional well-being.

DDP (Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy)

DDP, or Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, is an attachment-focused therapy primarily used with children who have experienced trauma, such as neglect or abuse, and their caregivers. Developed by Dr. Daniel Hughes, DDP aims to create a safe environment where children can explore and understand their emotions. The therapy fosters secure attachment between the child and caregiver, enhancing the child's emotional development and relational healing. DDP uses a playful, accepting, curious, and empathic approach to help children process their experiences and form healthier relationships.

EMDR for Adults

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) for Adults is a specialised therapeutic approach used to treat trauma and other psychological difficulties. This method is particularly effective in helping individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. By using guided eye movements, EMDR helps to reframe traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact and enabling clients to achieve psychological healing and emotional stability.

EMDR for Children

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) for Children is a child-friendly therapeutic technique designed to help young individuals process traumatic events and distressing memories. This approach is effective for treating childhood trauma, anxiety, phobias, and other emotional disturbances. Using gentle eye movements, EMDR enables children to reprocess traumatic memories in a safe and supportive environment, leading to improved emotional regulation and well-being.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on understanding and integrating the multiple 'parts' or sub-personalities within each individual. Developed by Dr. Richard Schwartz, IFS views the mind as being composed of distinct parts that may hold conflicting beliefs or emotions. By addressing these internal parts, IFS aims to promote self-awareness, self-compassion, and inner harmony, making it effective in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, and relational issues.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a therapeutic approach that focuses on being present in the moment and fully engaging with your current experience in a non-judgmental way. It is a practice rooted in ancient meditation traditions, adapted for modern therapeutic use to help manage stress, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. Mindfulness helps individuals develop a heightened awareness of their thoughts, emotions, and body sensations, which can lead to better emotional regulation and a greater sense of inner peace.
