Our approach
The therapeutic approach combines humanistic, trauma-informed and strengths-based counselling with Emotion Focused Therapy. Sessions draw on a range of evidence-based techniques including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (T-CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). Individual counselling sessions are tailored to help you understand yourself better, resolve complicated feelings, recognise unhelpful patterns, and address a broad range of issues including anxiety, grief, trauma, self-esteem, relationships and school concerns. Sessions can be conducted face-to-face or via Telehealth using Microsoft Teams or FaceTime.
