Types Of Therapy

Integrative Therapy

Integrative therapy means the therapist draws from more than one therapeutic approach — for example, combining elements of psychodynamic therapy, CBT, person-centred therapy, and coaching. Rather than expecting you to fit a single model, integrative therapy adapts to you — your personality, your goals, and what you need at different stages of your journey. This approach is flexible, collaborative, and tailored, helping you explore both why you feel the way you do and how to create change in the present. It’s especially helpful if you’re not sure what style of therapy you need, or if you want a blend of insight, emotional exploration, and practical tools.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT focuses on the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. The idea is that when we’re struggling, our mind can create unhelpful stories — for example, “I’m not good enough,” or “Something bad will happen.” These thoughts affect how we feel and what we do. CBT helps you notice those patterns, challenge them, and replace them with more balanced, realistic thinking. It’s practical, structured, and focuses on learning tools you can use in everyday life — things like grounding techniques, problem-solving skills, or changing habits that keep anxiety or low mood going. CBT is particularly helpful if you’re looking for strategies you can use straight away to reduce stress, anxiety, or overwhelm, and feel more in control of your thoughts.

Person-Centred Therapy

Person-centred therapy is a gentle, non-directive approach where the focus is on you — your experiences, feelings, and inner wisdom. Instead of offering advice or interpretations, the therapist provides empathy, deep understanding, and acceptance without judgement. This creates a safe relationship where you can explore whatever feels important at your own pace. Over time, this supportive environment helps you connect more fully with your own sense of self, make decisions that feel right for you, and build confidence in your ability to navigate life’s challenges. Person-centred therapy is particularly helpful if you want to feel deeply heard and understood, and if you’re looking for a space where you don’t have to perform, explain, or be “anything other than yourself.”

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy helps you understand the deeper emotional patterns that influence how you think, feel, and relate to others. We often repeat old patterns without realising it — choosing similar relationships, reacting in familiar ways, or being hard on ourselves — even when those patterns no longer serve us. This approach gently explores your past experiences, your inner emotional world, and how these show up in the present. Through increased awareness and insight, you begin to understand why certain triggers affect you, and you gain the freedom to respond differently instead of repeating old cycles. Psychodynamic therapy is especially helpful if you want to explore the roots of your struggles and create long-lasting change from the inside out.

Coaching

Coaching is future-focused and action-oriented. Rather than exploring your past or emotional patterns, coaching helps you clarify where you want to go and supports you in taking the steps to get there. Together, you’ll set meaningful goals and break them into manageable actions, with ongoing accountability and encouragement along the way. Coaching draws on positive psychology — focusing on your strengths, values, and what already works well in your life — rather than what’s “wrong” or needs fixing. The work centres on building confidence, momentum, and living in alignment with what genuinely matters to you. Coaching is particularly helpful if you feel stuck, unmotivated, or unsure of your direction and want support to move forward with clarity and energy.
