Therapeutic Approaches
Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
...is an evidence-based approach developed in the 1980s by Leslie Greenberg. It helps you understand, regulate, and express emotions in a healthy way. The therapy emphasizes how emotions influence thoughts, actions, and relationships, and promotes lasting change through emotional awareness and processing.
Somatic work
... is a body-oriented approach within psychotherapy that integrates the body's signals, movement, and sensations into the therapeutic process. Based on research in neuroscience and trauma psychology, the method focuses on how the body and mind interact in regulating stress, emotions, and processing trauma. Techniques such as breathing, movement, and body awareness are used to promote self-regulation, presence, and holistic well-being.
Psychodynamic therapy (PDT)
...is a deep, evidence-based approach that explores how past experiences, relational patterns, and unconscious processes influence our thoughts, feelings, and actions. The therapy emphasizes self-understanding and emotional processing to create lasting change and personal growth.
Internal Family Systems
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a research-based psychotherapeutic model developed by Richard C. Schwartz in the 1980s. It views the mind as made up of distinct inner parts and emphasizes healing through self-leadership, internal dialogue, and compassionate connection with the core Self.
Eco & Depth Psychology
explores the connection between the human inner life and nature, focusing on how our bond with ecosystems affects our mental health and well-being. The field combines psychology and ecology to promote a deeper understanding of our relationship with nature and how this can contribute to both personal and collective healing.
Meditation and mindfulness
are practices (or one could say meditation 'is,' rather than something you 'do') rooted in both Eastern traditions and modern psychology, helping to develop presence, self-awareness, and inner peace. Mindfulness, popularized in the West by Jon Kabat-Zinn, involves being consciously present in the moment without judgment. These techniques promote stress management, emotional regulation, and a deeper connection to oneself and the world around us.
