We do this using our in-depth experience and expert knowledge of cognitive behavioural, systematic, psycho-dynamic and brief therapy approaches. We also provide psychological assessment, using well researched psychometric tools.

We offer performance and business coaching for individuals or large corporations.

We also provide specialised therapy for those presenting with post-traumatic stress, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) and Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR) techniques.

 
We offer a private and confidential service to support and facilitate your needs to create change and enhance psychological well-being.

Types of Therapy

Psychological therapy can help you explore any personal problems that you experience and examine alternative ways of dealing with them. We use a range of standard therapies to address problems, including:

  • Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy.
  • Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy.
  • Solution Focused Therapy.
  • Systemic Therapy.
  • Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing.
The Therapy Process
The therapy process involves talking, thinking and doing. The psychologist may prompt you by asking questions and making observations. This will help you to develop a better understanding of your situation. Both you and your psychologist will work towards defining goals and solving problems.

You will be actively involved in all aspects of the process. The approaches used in therapy have been found to be effective for many different problems. Your psychologist will also discuss with you what you can expect from therapy.

Our Therapists
 
We offer a private and confidential service to support and facilitate your needs. Coaching is a collaborative solution-focused process, which can focus on any aspect of a person’s life in assisting personal growth. It does not seek to give people answers to their difficulties, but through working together with your coach, helps you find a way forward by reaching your own conclusions and solutions.

The ultimate goal of coaching is for you to become your own coach – to be able to use the skills you have learnt independently.

 

We provide coaching in the following areas:
