Integrative Approach Counselling

How can Integrative Psychotherapist Experts help you?

Integrative Counselling is a type of psychotherapy that combines various elements from different therapeutic approaches. Integrative therapists believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to treating clients, and thus, they adapt their methods to the specific needs of each client.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy believes that our early life experiences shape how we relate to ourselves and others. The therapist-client relationship is given significant importance, and both parties' interactions are analysed in detail. This approach allows clients to develop an understanding of the unconscious forces that affect their behaviour and mood. By exploring unresolved conflicts and issues hidden in the unconscious mind, clients can work towards resolving them and improve their mental well-being.

Person-centred therapy seeks to put the client at the centre of the work at all times, seeing them as the expert rather than the counsellor. At its heart is the belief that we all have an innate tendency to be our best selves given the right conditions, the absence of which can lead to great emotional distress. The person-centred counsellor strives to recreate these core conditions for the individual and facilitate their journey towards self-actualisation.
