Integrative Counselling
What is it?
Integrative counselling combines different therapeutic approaches to create a personalised treatment plan tailored to the unique needs of each individual. This flexible approach allows the counsellor to draw on a range of psychological theories and techniques, ensuring that the therapy is adapted to suit the client’s specific emotional and mental health requirements. It acknowledges that no single method works for everyone, promoting a holistic understanding of the person’s experiences.
By blending elements of humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural, and other counselling models, integrative counselling supports clients in exploring their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours in a safe, supportive environment. This method fosters personal growth, emotional healing, and resilience, helping individuals both adults and children to overcome difficulties and improve their wellbeing.
Sessions can be accessed in person, online, or through walking and talking therapy, providing flexible options to suit each client’s preferences and lifestyle.
“‘Emotional wellbeing is just as important to us as Breathing is!”
If you are interested in non-talking, less directive help and struggle to identify and talk about your emotions, Art therapy gives you the opportunity to explore your feelings in a completely non-intrusive way. Work at your own pace to explore what you desire. Choose from drawing, sand-play or Lego, which ever you feel comfortable with. No talking required, unless you want to, just play!
Session lengths vary dependent on age.
A modern approach
Choose from…..
Drawing
It all begins with an idea. Drawing provides the opportunity to powerfully express yourself through your own art work. You don’t have to worry about being great at drawing to express yourself, your pencil strokes are unique to you and every mark that you make will be part of your own personal healing journey. Whatever it maybe. Telling your story your way is all that matters.
Lego
Lego provides the opportunity to powerfully express yourself through the creation of an imaginary world. It encourages expression and stimualtes an individuals creativity as well as helping to develop fine motor skills and hand-eye co-ordination.
Sand-play
A hugely popular option with young children, sand-play provides a sensory experience. Great for those with Sensory Processing Disorder, sand-play can be extremely calming and providing a tactile way to play out those innermost feelings.
“Enter into children’s play, and you will find the place where their minds, hearts, and souls meet.”
