Therapies we offer

Although CBT can form the core of some of the therapy we provide, many years of experience has taught us that there are valuable and groundbreaking new therapeutic approaches which will also inform our practice.

New Wave CBT approaches, the central tenet of Compassion and associated Mindfulness, and the acknowledgement of the importance of body sensations in a range of body psychotherapies allows us to tap into the ‘unthought known’.

‘Madness does not exist. It is just a way of feeling when we discover that there is a serious discrepancy between what we thought our lives would be, and what they actually are.’

Central to much of our work is the acknowledgment that we are made up of a ‘community of parts’ or ego states which work together to protect us from ‘intolerable’ emotional pain. Becoming conscious of these parts and their good intentions can clear a path to viewing onself/oneselves with kindness and respect.

The service also offers the opportunity for Personal Development.

Personal Development work invites us to look deeper into ourselves, past the ego, and into the truths, wisdom and guidance offered in the writings of giants such as Jung, Eckhart Tolle, Sadhguru, Caroline Myss, David Hawkins, A Course in Miracles, Huw Len, Anodea Judith and many others

Much of modern psychology borrows extensively from more ancient ways of thinking and being such as Buddhism. ‘New’ emphases are on acceptance, forgiveness, taking responsibility, mindfulness, presence, and a connection to a person’s individual concept of the ‘spiritual’ element within them. I believe these can be relevant and useful in our modern world to help us cope with the fast pace of work, relationship and family life.
