OUR APPROACH
Approaches Rooted in Evidence and Care
Parts Therapy
Transpersonal Therapy
Somatic Psychotherapy
Narrative Therapy
Helps you understand and compassionately engage with different aspects of yourself that may hold conflicting emotions or needs. By building awareness and acceptance of these inner 'parts,' this approach supports emotional integration and inner harmony.
Weaves together psychological and spiritual perspectives to support personal growth and expanded self-awareness. It may explore meaning, values, and inner experiences that reach beyond the individual self, nurturing holistic well-being.
Honours the deep connection between mind and body. By gently tuning into physical sensations and bodily responses, this approach helps process stress, trauma, and emotional experiences held in the body.
Views you as separate from your problems—you are not your struggles. This approach helps you examine and reshape personal stories, fostering empowerment, fresh perspectives, and a stronger sense of agency in your own life.
Rational-Emotive
Behavioural Therapy
Helps identify and gently challenge rigid or unhelpful beliefs that contribute to emotional distress. This approach supports the development of healthier thinking patterns, emotional balance, and adaptive ways of coping with life's challenges.
Solution-Focused
Brief Counselling
Dialectical Behavioural Therapy
Spirit Building
Practices
A goal-oriented approach that addresses immediate concerns with practical, collaborative strategies. It helps you recognize what's already working, set clear goals, and move toward meaningful change efficiently.
Supports individuals who experience intense emotions or find relationships and distress difficult to navigate. It builds practical skills in emotional regulation, mindfulness, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Support personal growth, meaning-making, and inner connection. These practices may incorporate reflection, values exploration, and culturally or spiritually informed approaches to support overall well-being.
Attachment-Based
Therapy
Explores how early relationships and attachment experiences shape the way we connect with ourselves and others. In a safe, attuned therapeutic relationship, this approach helps heal old wounds, build trust, and develop more secure, fulfilling connections.
Hynotherapy
Uses guided relaxation and focused attention to access the subconscious mind, where deeply held patterns and beliefs often reside. This gentle approach can support change in areas like anxiety, habits, trauma, and self-confidence by working with your mind's natural capacity for healing.
Internal Family
Systems (IFS)
Views the mind as made up of distinct 'parts,' each with its own feelings, memories, and intentions. This compassionate approach helps you understand, befriend, and harmonize these inner parts—guided by your core Self—to promote deep healing and wholeness.
Mindfulness-Based
Interventions
Cultivate present-moment awareness with openness and non-judgment. These practices help reduce stress, manage difficult emotions, and build a kinder, more grounded relationship with yourself and your experiences.
Self-Compassion Therapy
Invite you to treat yourself with the same kindness, understanding, and care you would offer a close friend. This approach helps soften self-criticism, build emotional resilience, and nurture a more accepting relationship with yourself—especially during difficult times.
Trauma-Informed Care
Recognizes that past experiences of trauma can deeply affect how we feel, think, and relate to others. This approach prioritizes safety, trust, and choice, creating a therapeutic environment where healing can unfold at your own pace with dignity and respect.
