OUR PRACTICE
My main theoretical approach is Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), which is a form of psychotherapy that emphasizes the important role of thinking in how we feel and what we do.
I have also shown great interest in Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT) these past years, where the objective is not the elimination of difficult feelings, but helping people being present with what life brings and moving towards a more valued behaviour.
Mindfulness is also used as a therapeutic tool in my work, that can be very useful when it comes to becoming aware of all incoming thoughts and feelings without judgment, and ACCEPTING them instead of REACTING to them.
When it comes to children aged 6years and above, via play, drawings, and the use of other props, they can work through emotional, psychosocial and behavioural difficulties or any other family issue they are facing.
I have a duty of confidentiality to my clients, in accordance with my professional ethics. I will seek to protect their privacy at all times. I will not tell anyone else what it is being discussed, unless he/she gives me their written consent.
After achieving my first degree, BSc in Psychology, I completed ….. Chartered Psychologist.
I am also a member with the British….. as a Cognitive Behavioural psychotherapist, and an affiliate member with the Association for Contextual Behavioural science (ACBS).
