Services
Hypnotherapy
Our hypnotherapy sessions use guided relaxation techniques to access the subconscious mind. This approach helps address anxiety, phobias, and habit disorders by modifying negative thought patterns. Clients learn self-hypnosis techniques for ongoing symptom management between sessions.
EMDR Therapy
EMDR treatment utilises eye movements to reprocess traumatic memories. This evidence-based therapy effectively treats PTSD, panic attacks, and phobias by reducing emotional distress associated with past experiences. Most clients show significant improvement within 4-8 sessions.
CBT Sessions
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy identifies and challenges negative thought patterns. Our therapists help clients develop practical coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Sessions focus on present-day challenges and behavioural change techniques.
Child Counselling
Specialised therapy for children and teenagers addresses anxiety, confidence issues, and trauma. Our practitioners use age-appropriate techniques including play therapy and CBT. Parents receive progress updates while maintaining client confidentiality.
Stress Management
Corporate stress management programmes combine relaxation techniques with practical coping strategies. We provide both individual consultations and organisational training workshops. Techniques include breathing exercises, time management, and cognitive restructuring.
