Modalities
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a widely used, evidence-based therapy that focuses on changing negative thought patterns and behaviours to improve emotional wellbeing. It involves identifying and challenging distorted thoughts, implementing strategies to alter harmful behaviours, and developing practical problem-solving skills.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapy approach that helps individuals accept their thoughts and feelings rather than trying to change them. ACT focuses on embracing emotions, distancing from unhelpful thoughts, and being present in the moment. It also emphasises identifying personal values and committing to actions aligned with those values.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) helps people manage intense emotions and improve coping skills. Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, it's now used for various mental health issues. DBT focuses on mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, and is effective in reducing self-harm and emotional instability.
