I envision psychotherapy as a growth process. I know the medical model well; I just don't center my therapeutic approach on treating diseases. I treat people. Rather than diagnose-treat-cure, my model is connect-interact-become. It's a personal growth model. The willingnesss to permit a professional to facilitate your personal growth is not a disease; it's an accomplishment.

I use a theoretically integrated approach that combines humanist, cognitive-behavioural, narrative, gestalt, and interpersonal techniques. I use a supportive reality based approach that focuses on processing the after-effects of challenging experiences and moving towards greater personal responsibility, and active decision-making in relationships. My goal is to provide a safe environment in which to explore personal beliefs, decide whether they are accurate, and then adopt and practice new beliefs and behaviours.

In psychotherapy a safe, professional, nonjudgemental, and caring environment is established to assist clients in change, healing, and the development of tools to respond to life's challenges and transitions in healthy and constructive way. In psychotherapy, I integrate a variety of approaches to help individuals work through issues such as anxiety, depression, anger, grief, marriage/relationship conflict/communication, and significant life transitions.

Psychotherapy is a deep process of understanding and personal growth. Guided by your personal goals and values, I also draw on the function-focused approach of Occupational Therapy. This allows for progress in how you live your life as well as how you think and feel. We collaborate through open-dialogue towards your desired self-image. Blocks to progress are expected to arise and addressed together. With best-practice psychological approaches, your unique goals and needs are met this a highly tailored process.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy will often provide treatment that is more long-term than counseling and address issues on a deeper level. This may include looking at long-standing patterns of behavior, talking about childhood causes of current problems, or an intensive attempt to understand and alter thinking, feeling or behavior patterns. People who might benefit from seeing a therapist include: someone dealing with a severe mental illness, such as depression or an anxiety disorder; someone who has experienced something traumatic, such as violence or rape; or someone who wants to improve and gain a deeper understanding of relationships in their lives.

Nicolas utilizes a form of therapy called Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) which was developed by Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg. SFT concentrates on solutions and preferred futures in preference to problems. In using this theoretical approach, Nicolas amplifies clients’ strengths and abilities that are already being used to combat the clients problem.

Psychotherapy is a unique process of self-discovery in which the client investigates, accepts and experiences the inner workings of his/her mind with the trained support and reassuring guidance of the therapist. This relationship is a unique, unconditional tool for growth. Using emotion as a catalyst, clients, with their own efforts, are able to heal their wounds and make fulfilling long lasting changes in their lives.

Psychotherapy is the treatment of mental health problems through a collaborative relationship between an individual and their psychologist. Through psychotherapy, an individual learns about their thoughts, behaviors, feelings, moods and overall condition by talking to a psychologist about them. At Valiant Recovery, our psychotherapy methods are aimed at discovering the underlying issues that spawn addiction and substance abuse, such as grief, trauma and mental illness. All of our therapists have masters degrees in social work or counseling, as well as extensive experience treating addiction and substance abuse disorders.

Often we know what we need to do differently, it's not that we don't have the wisdom, it's that it can be hard to apply! Doing Psychotherapy with me is a gentle and compassionate process of uncovering and tending to the old wounds and patterns that can be steering our behaviour and leading us astray. This frees up the space to live in the present with mindfulness, and create the future that we dream of!

My approach to psychotherapy is that change takes time. I work long term with most of my clients so that they may realize "real" change in their lives. Psychotherapy to me, is more than counseling. Counseling tends to focus on techniques and solutions; however, psychotherapy is a process of change. This process will the experienced with me in the room and also during the time between sessions. The commitment to the process of change is crucial for successful results.

Hate to break it to you but.....the one size fits all method of psychotherapy doesn't work. Everyone is different and so should their therapy be. My approach to therapy is rooted in a client centered perspective, which means we will run with whatever resonates with you! I also firmly believe in building a solid trusting relationship in therapy. When a person knows they are heard, not alone and cared about - life gets better. I'm also really fond of humor in therapy and... I think I'm funny - consider yourself warned.

Psychotherapy is a process of working through beliefs, emotions, trauma and current life events that enables you to move forward uncencumbered by destructive beliefs and emotions. Psychotherapists are trained to listen and interact with you in ways that facilitates the unlocking of traumatic and habitual ways of thinking and behaving so that you can live more freely and consciously.

Psychological freedom comes not from the lack of so called "negative" emotions, instead it comes from the ability to understand their source and use their strength appropriately. Challenges often come either from the denial of difficult emotions, or from allowing emotions too much control. Confusion or uncertainty around how to interpret our emotional self creates difficulties in our day-to-day lives, our relationships, our confidence. Let me show you how even extreme anxiety such as OCD or generalized anxiety, anger, jealousy, depression, and even PTSD symptoms can be managed through Emotion Focused Therapy.

I practice integrative psychotherapy, combining both knowledge from psychological theory of change along side our increasing understanding of neuroscience and neurological process of thought, behavior, and emotions. Through combining the science of psychotherapy with neuroscience (neuropsychotherapy) we can find meaning for your experience and distress that is supported by existing evidence.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns.

A strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of effective psychotherapy. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to explore your presenting concerns and gain insights into how they came to be. I draw upon the knowledge gained from my extensive training and life experience in order to tailor a treatment plan just for you. Clients typically leave my sessions feeling lighter and with increased mental clarity. Not only do I provide support, but guidance on how you might handle your current situation.

Psychotherapy includes a more long-term exploration into one's inner functioning, in order to make lasting change. While doing psychotherapy, I assist my clients to look into their inner life, which often includes looking back at family of origin issues or past relationships to learn how one has become who they are today, and then identifying areas where they would like to see change. We then work to shift these patterns of being to create a more fulfilling, peaceful life, with healthier choices.

Psychotherapy leads to in-depth understanding about ourselves. This understanding is prerequisite to engaging intimately with others and having conscious control over our needs are reactions. The therapeutic relationship established is the context where psychological change is possible. Psychotherapy is appropriate for both long-tern and short-term healing.

I describe Psychotherapy as the process of examining and addressing the underlying causes of the problem. For example, someone with anxiety symptoms may find medications helpful, but they may be unaware of their beliefs that promote their anxiety. Psychotherapy is about addressing the presenting symptoms as well as the underlying issues. This process may include the examination of thoughts and beliefs, family of origin work, and repetitive patterns. Not all of my clients are interested in doing this deeper work, and I respect that. However, examining our problematic symptoms at a deeper level can provide a rich foundation for long lasting change.

Psychotherapy also known to some as personal counselling, is an intended interpersonal relationship between a trained psychotherapist and their client. Psychotherapy is a talking therapy that aims and works at increasing the individual's sense of self-awareness. A psychotherapist may use a wide range of techniques geared to relationship building, exchange of ideas, communication and behaviour change with a view to improve the well-being of a client or improving group relationships (such as in family, friends, or even co-workers). At Loussa Counselling Centre we take a holistic approach to achieve individual wellness of the mind, body, and soul. Our approach is progressive, pure and natural.
