Our Services
Types of therapy we provide
1
Emotion Focused Therapy
(EFT)
EFT is a compassionate, evidence-based approach that helps individuals couples and families explore the deeper emotions beneath distress. By accessing and working with core emotional experiences, EFT promotes healing, strengthens self-understanding, and builds more secure, connected relationships.
2
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
(DBT)
DBT is a skills-based approach that helps people manage intense emotions, build healthier relationships, and navigate distress with more balance. It combines mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to support greater stability and self-awareness.
3
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy
(CBT)
CBT is a practical, evidence-based approach that helps people understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are connected. By identifying unhelpful patterns and learning new coping strategies, CBT supports lasting change and helps reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other challenges
4
Acceptance and Comittment Therapy
(ACT)
ACT helps individuals build psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult thoughts and emotions while staying connected to their values. Through mindfulness and committed action, ACT supports meaningful change and helps people live with greater purpose, even in the face of challenges.
5
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
(EMDR)
EMDR is a trauma-focused therapy that helps people process and heal from distressing memories and experiences. By using guided eye movements or bilateral stimulation, EMDR allows the brain to reprocess stuck or overwhelming material, reducing emotional intensity and supporting lasting relief
6
Mindful Self Compassion
(MSC)
MSC is an approach that helps individuals respond to their struggles with kindness, understanding, and care rather than self-criticism. By combining mindfulness with the practice of self-compassion, MSC fosters emotional resilience, reduces shame, and supports greater well-being and inner strength.
