Clinical Counselling

What is Clinical Counselling?

Counselling provides a safe and supportive place for people to process their lives. Be it a recent trauma or loss, a time of transition and exploration, or a long-standing problem, a skilled counsellor can make an enormous difference in how a person, family or couple works through these challenges.

Therapists are trained professionals, skilled in communication, who understand how people work through difficult feelings and events. They help facilitate change. In fact, they are experts in the process of change. A relationship with a therapist can become a profound and deeply moving experience, one that makes life better, richer, and more satisfying.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a highly effective therapy approach for clients suffering from anxiety, trauma, depression and other distressing life events. It is a safe, non-invasive form of therapy with fast results. EMDR directly effects the way our brain processes information, which can become disorganized or stuck after experiencing a trauma. Similarly to the processing that occurs in REM sleep, EMDR utilizes eye movement to reprocess traumatic events into less distressing memories.

This powerful short term therapy approach is a very effective treatment for many conditions including: traumatic memories, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, panic attacks, guilt, anger, abuse, phobias, performance anxiety, eating disorders and poor body image, stress reduction and self esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a short term, goal focused therapy that targets thoughts and behaviours in order to make changes in your current well being. This technique transforms maladaptive thought patterns that negatively impact behaviour. By identifying distorted thinking, providing alternative ways to perceive the world and better coping strategies around emotion regulation, you are able to choose more productive behaviours that match with the life you want to be living. CBT is particularly beneficial for anxiety, depression and loss of purpose in life.

Guided Imagery & Music (GIM) is a method of self-exploration and music therapy developed by Dr. Helen Bonny over 40 years ago. Bonny worked with Stanislav Grof, a renowned psychiatrist, researcher, and one of the founders of transpersonal psychology, studying the therapeutic effects of altered states of consciousness.
