How can Cognitive Behaviour Therapy help?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) aims to help you gain a perspective about whatever is troubling you. Together we identify what might be stopping you from reaching your full potential and what action you need to take to change your situation.

Therapists look beyond presenting problems to possible underlying causes. The aim of CBT is to help you change your behaviour to that which is more productive for you.  The process helps you move towards becoming the kind of person you want to be.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is an information processing therapy that was developed to resolve symptoms resulting from disturbing and unresolved life experiences. EMDR is rated in the highest category of effectiveness and research support in international guidelines for PTSD treatment. It uses a structured approach to address past, present, and future aspects of disturbing memories. The approach was developed by Francine Shapiro to resolve symptoms resulting from exposure to a traumatic or distressing event, such as rape. Clinical trials have demonstrated EMDR's efficacy in the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Although some clinicians may use EMDR for various problems, its research support is primarily for disorders stemming from distressing life experiences.
