Individual psychotherapy is a joint process between yourself and your therapist. Yet at the same time it is a journey from you in the present into the past and future.

The common goal in therapy is to develop and evolve who and where you are currently that improves your quality of life. Therapy is not so black and white as making everything better and advice seeking, in fact it is about learning tools/skills to help you in everyday life, foster positive change, develop a more robust understanding of yourself, address mental health concerns, overcoming concerns in day-to-day life.

Individual therapy can help all walks of life even those that resist and do not believe in the benefits.

Reading a list of bullet points may not provide you with the reassurance you require to take that third step, as the first step is you visiting this page and second is reading said points.

That being said, here at Christie Heart we want you to believe that change can occur not just from our words but from yourself that you are making a positive step in your life.

 

                                                                                              

 

At Christie Heart, throughout the staff what we provide to you in our sessions are as followed.

• Filling up your treasure chest: As we set off on your voyage at times it may seem as though you have hit an iceberg, been blasted with a cannon ball, a leak in the floor, a bad thunderstorm. We will work on developing tools to help you manage those difficult times that if and when they occur again you can open your treasure chest to help combat with those difficult situations!

 

• Unbiased, non-judgement and open-minded approach to all your concerns.

 

• Active listening and participation within the session so that the session is engaging with information, not just a one-sided conversation.

 

• Rapport building within the sessions to better understand you and your problem to obtain an Individualized approach to your current concerns.

 

• Evidence-Based Therapy: Throughout our time together, evidence-based therapy such as CBT, DBT, SFBT, EFT and others will be used that have several years of experience with reputable scholarly articles, professionals and research backing up the methods and successes.
