Modalities I practice
(Please note that this is a non exhaustive list and treatment will depend on your specific needs)
01.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can help you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and how these patterns may be affecting the way you experience everyday life. Together, we’ll gently explore any unhelpful thought patterns and identify ways to shift them so you can respond with greater clarity. CBT also utilises practical tools and strategies with the aim of reducing conflict.
02.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy combines CBT approaches with mindfulness principles to help you manage intense emotions, strengthen social relationships and develop coping strategies for managing heightened emotions. Using individual and group training, DBT helps you to understand the complexity and constantly changing nature of everyday life, requiring you to balance opposing and contradictory feelings and engage in a continuous dialogue between yourself and others
03.
This modality brings together mindfulness and CBT to help you develop a deeper awareness of your inner thoughts and emotions and how they move through your body. Rather than trying to change or push away difficult feelings, you’ll learn to meet them with greater insight, compassion and acceptance, creating space to respond rather than simply react. Through gentle mindfulness practices you can become more grounded in the present, feel more connected to yourself and develop a greater sense of calm.
04.
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapy that teaches you to accept difficult thoughts and emotions rather than fight them, while committing to actions aligned with your personal values. It offers a compassionate way to approach difficult inner feelings without conflict. Together, we can explore what matters most to you and help you move toward a life that feels more aligned with your values, even during times of heightened distress.
05.
Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) can help you explore how your relationships and connections with others may be affecting your emotional wellbeing. Together, we’ll look at possible patterns in your relationships and social interactions, while creating space to work through intense emotions or during major life changes. You’ll develop practical tools to communicate your needs more confidently and navigate challenging interpersonal situations with greater self compassion. The aim is to help you feel more connected, supported and able to build relationships that feel meaningful and fulfilling.
06.
Somatic Experiencing Therapy offers you a gentle, body-focused approach to understanding and working through the effects of trauma and stress. Together, we’ll pay attention to the ways your body may be holding onto difficult experiences, including sensations such as tension, anxiety, restlessness or feeling on edge. Rather than asking you to revisit everything at once, we’ll work at a pace that feels safe for you, helping your nervous system gradually feel more regulated. By reconnecting with your body and learning to listen to its signals, you can develop a greater sense of safety, ease and connection within yourself.
