Art Psychotherapy

Art therapy is a type of therapy that uses creative activities like drawing, painting, or sculpting to help you express your thoughts and feelings. Sometimes it can be hard to put emotions into words, and art provides another way to explore what’s going on. 

You don’t need to be good at art to benefit from art therapy—it’s not about making something perfect. Instead, the focus is on using the creative process to help you explore your feelings, work through challenges, and better understand yourself. A trained art therapist guides you through the process, creating a safe and supportive space for you to express yourself. 

Couples Therapy 

Couples counselling is a type of therapy that helps people in relationships work through challenges and improve how they connect and communicate with each other. It provides a safe and neutral space where both partners can talk openly about their feelings, concerns, and frustrations, with the support of a trained counsellor. The goal isn’t to place blame but to understand each other better, work through problems, and find ways to strengthen your relationship. 

Whether you’re dealing with specific issues like trust, conflict, or changes in life, or you just want to improve how you relate to each other, couples counselling can help you build a healthier, more supportive partnership. It’s about finding tools and understanding to move forward together, whether that means resolving conflicts, deepening your connection, or making decisions about the future. 

Dance And Movement Therapy 

Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP) is a type of therapy that uses movement and dance to help you explore your emotions, express yourself, and feel more connected to your body. Sometimes it can be hard to put feelings into words, and moving your body can be a powerful way to process and communicate what you’re going through. 

In DMP, you don’t need any dance experience—it’s not about how you move or whether it looks “good.” A trained therapist will guide you in using movement in a way that feels natural and comfortable for you. It’s about helping you connect your body and mind, releasing tension, and exploring your feelings in a safe and supportive space. 

Eye Movement Desensitisation And Reprocessing  (EMDR)

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy designed to help people process and heal from difficult or traumatic experiences. Sometimes, after something upsetting happens, it can feel like the memory gets “stuck,” causing distressing thoughts, feelings, or reactions long after the event. EMDR helps you work through those memories so they no longer feel overwhelming. 

In EMDR, you work with a trained therapist to focus on specific memories or feelings while doing simple movements, like following the therapist’s hand with your eyes. These movements help your brain process the memory in a way that feels less painful or intense. You don’t have to go into lots of detail about the experience if you don’t want to—the focus is on helping your brain naturally heal. 

Psychodynamic Counselling (talking therapy)

Psychodynamic counselling is a type of talking therapy that helps you understand yourself better by looking at how your past experiences, especially from childhood, might be affecting how you feel and act now. The idea is that some of our feelings and behaviours come from things we’re not fully aware of, and this therapy helps bring those things to light.

By talking with a counsellor in a safe and supportive space, you can explore your emotions, thoughts, and memories. This can help you understand why certain patterns keep showing up in your life and relationships. Over time, this understanding can help you feel more in control and make positive changes in your life. 

Somatic Experiencing Therapy 

Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a type of therapy that helps people heal from trauma and stress by focusing on the connection between the mind and body. When we go through something upsetting, our body often holds onto the stress, which can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed. SE helps you release that tension so you can feel calmer and more in control. 

In SE, the therapist gently guides you to notice how your body feels and responds to certain thoughts, memories, or sensations. You don’t have to talk in detail about what happened—instead, the focus is on what’s happening in the present moment. By paying attention to these physical sensations, the therapy helps your body let go of stress and find its natural balance again. 

Systemic Therapy (families and couples) 

Systemic or family psychotherapy is a type of therapy that focuses on improving relationships within a family. It’s based on the idea that when one person is struggling, it often affects everyone around them, and by working together, the whole family can find better ways to support and understand each other. 

In family therapy, everyone is encouraged to share their thoughts and feelings in a safe and respectful space, guided by a trained therapist. The focus isn’t on blaming anyone but on exploring how family dynamics, communication patterns, or past experiences might be influencing current challenges. Together, you’ll work on ways to improve understanding, resolve conflicts, and strengthen connections.
