Counselling

​An integrative counselling approach is a type of therapy that combines different therapeutic techniques and theories to create a personalized treatment plan for each individual.

The various techniques and theories are explained below and will be used depending on the client's unique needs.

Holistic Counselling

Holistic counselling treats the individual as a whole, rather than limiting the approach only to the issue or symptom. It aims to promote healing, growth, and positive change by integrating the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of a person’s life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

​Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is structured, goal-oriented psychotherapy combining behavioural techniques with cognitive processes. It examines how thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes influence feelings and actions.

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) 

MBCT is a modified form of cognitive therapy that combines cognitive behavioural techniques with mindfulness practices.

MBCT helps clients develop increased awareness and acceptance of their thoughts, emotions, and experiences, promoting resilience and preventing relapse in depression and anxiety. MBCT includes mindfulness practices such as meditation and breathing exercises.

Person-Centred therapy

Person-centred therapy shifts the "expert" focus from the therapist to the client, empowering the client to take control of their therapeutic process.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

SFBT is a collaborative, strengths-based approach to therapeutic change. SFBT focuses on present circumstances and future hopes instead of the past causes and present problems. 

Trauma-Informed Therapy

This approach acknowledges and understands the persistent nature and impact of trauma. It focuses on understanding a client’s history and focuses on safety, empowerment, and long-term healing. The aim is to address trauma symptoms and build resilience.

Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis has been safely and effectively used for thousands of years for many different ailments.

Physicians, Psychologists, and Hypnotherapists have used hypnosis as a valuable tool in solving such problems as sleep disturbance, concentration and memory, fears and phobias, control of pain, smoking, overeating, alcoholism, anxiety, depression and confidence building.

Hypnosis is best described as a very deep state of relaxation, in other words, a normal, natural, healthy state of mind.

A clinical hypnotherapist uses hypnosis to facilitate a state of mental, physical and emotional relaxation in their client.

When you are in hypnosis, your conscious mind – the busy, analytical part of the mind – takes a rest.

Hypnosis allows you to tap into the storehouse of information that lies in the subconscious (sometimes referred to as the unconscious) mind and make positive changes to thought patterns, habits, or the effects of traumatic incidents that are having a negative impact on you, either mentally or physically.

A Clinical Hypnotherapist is a specialist in hypnosis, using the healing state of hypnosis to work with problems or conditions that the client wishes to change.
