OUR APPROACH

Our approach emphasizes that the most crucial element in therapy isn't strictly the theoretical model employed, but the connection, trust, and understanding developed within the therapeutic relationship. We believe that a supportive, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment is fundamental to facilitate personal growth and healing, and we prioritize building this therapeutic alliance, adapting their techniques to meet each client's unique needs and circumstances.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Solution-focused therapy is a goal-directed therapeutic approach that emphasizes identifying and leveraging clients' strengths and resources to find solutions to their current problems, rather than focusing on past issues or causes. We seek to integrate solution-focused approaches into a relational, client-centred approach to empower clients to take charge of their life, focusing on creating the life they want and believing in the possibility of progress and moving forward​​.

Family Systems Therapy

Family Systems Therapy explores the complex interplay and patterns within family relationships. It seeks to understand and address individual issues within the wider context of family dynamics, recognizing that each member's behaviour impacts the entire unit. This lens helps families identify and modify unhelpful interactions, fostering healthier communication and relationships to improve the well-being of all members.

Restorative Justice

Restorative Justice is an approach focused on healing and reconciliation rather than punishment. It brings together all affected parties to address harm, understand its impact, and collaboratively decide on how to repair it. This process aims to restore relationships, foster understanding, and promote a sense of community, accountability, and healing for both the victim and the offender.

Narrative Therapy

Narrative therapy is a therapeutic approach that encourages clients to reframe and reinterpret their life experiences as stories, helping them to identify and rewrite unhelpful narratives in a way that empowers them to see themselves and their problems in a more constructive light.. We use this approach to help clients navigate and reshape their personal narratives in a positive way, integrating it with other well-researched therapies​​

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy is a practical, short-term form of psychotherapy that focuses on identifying, challenging, and changing negative thought patterns and behaviours. It empowers individuals to develop coping strategies aimed at solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in thinking, behaviour, and emotional regulation. CBT can be particularly helpful when assisting clients to process emotions that arise from challenging circumstances, such as family transitions.

Transformative Mediation

Transformative Mediation is a process centred on empowerment and recognition, aiming to transform the relationships and interactions between parties in conflict. It facilitates open communication, encourages parties to see each other's perspectives, and empowers them to resolve their issues collaboratively. This approach not only seeks to find solutions to immediate problems but also aims to strengthen relationships and improve communication skills, leading to more enduring and meaningful resolutions.
