EMDR is a unique, non-traditional psychotherapy which can assist with desensitization to negative feelings that result from memories of traumatic events. Rather than focussing on these painful memories through traditional talk therapies, EMDR focuses on altering the emotions, thoughts and responses that result from traumatic experiences through eye movements that help reprocess the way these memories are stored in the brain. This can be an effective treatment that reduces problematic symptoms associated with traumatic experiences.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used therapeutic approach that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

It is based on the premise that our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors, and by changing negative/unhelpful thought patterns, individuals can make positive changes in their emotional well-being and behavior.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) merges components of cognitive therapy, behavioral therapy and mindfulness strategies. The primary goal of ACT is to help individuals create a fulfilling and meaningful life while effectively managing the inevitable challenges of pain, hurt and stress.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a short-term goal-focused approach which incorporates positive psychology principles and practices. It aims to helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on providing helpful skills in the domains of mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.

In doing so, DBT can open up more effective communication with others whilst supporting you to maintain self-respect and assertiveness.
