I am trained and experienced in working with the treatment approaches Compassion focused therapy, Cognitive behaviour therapy and EMDR.
Compassion-focused therapy
Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) is a method used in cognitive therapy.
CFT aims at creating an understanding of how your mind works and how to manage your emotions. Through the therapy, you are taught how to address to your challenges with care and understanding and also how to embrace the world and other people with the same approach.
The objective of the therapy is to enable you to view and address to the challenges you come across in your life and with this learn to relate to these aspects in a new and more constructive manner.
Using concrete exercises – an example is mindfulness – you learn how to create a higher level of reliance and confidence in yourself.
CFT is an acknowledged and evidence-based method.
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) focuses on the relationship between your thoughts, emotions, physical reactions and behaviour. The way you think about the world, yourself and others has a major impact on the way you feel and how you live your life. The therapy helps you identify inexpedient thoughts and actions which might give rise to anxiety and limitations and reflect on the way in which you exist in the world. This approach helps you find other ways of thinking and acting – ways which are more realistic and self-supportive and this paves the way for a life characterised by enhanced quality of life and joy. CBT is an acknowledged and evidence-based method.
EMDR
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an integrative psychotherapy approach which is particularly effective when treating traumas. As human beings most of us will suffer one or more traumatic experiences at some point in our lives. Although they might have taken place long ago, some of these experiences might continue to have a negative impact on us and disrupt our everyday lives – occasionally to the extent where we are unable to make our daily life function.
EMDR therapy might help you process traumatic experiences and store them in your memory in a place where they no longer disturb you and cause emotional distress. In popular terms, the therapy will help you make the past a thing of the past and the present a thing of the present.
EMDR is an acknowledged and evidence-based method.
