Holistic psychological / mental, emotional, spiritual and social wellbeing support.

For children, young people and adults, in a home, school, community or agency setting; face to face, via telephone, Skype or Zoom.

Helping individuals, couples, staff and organisations feel safe, healthy, and therefore able to thrive personally, professionally and academically.

Our therapists work with individual children, young people and adults, in a home, school, community or agency setting. Collaboration and consultation is at the heart of our approach, and we will work with you to develop flexible and creative strategies to promote holistic health and wellbeing, learning, positive change in behaviour and thinking at individual, group or systemic levels. We apply psychological therapies, counselling and psychotherapy to support children, young people and adults with all types of symptoms and situations; and special and additional need including learning and cognitive development, social, emotional and behavioural needs, identified needs such as Autism and people with other impairments, as well as people with any type of physical disability.

Also central to our work is the notion that children’s needs are often powerfully mediated by the dynamic human and physical environment around them, so our work as applied therapists very frequently extends to those who live and work with children and young people, such as school staff and families.

What makes ‘integrative’ therapists unique?  

Our ‘integrative’ therapists’ are familiar with not just one approach of therapy, but a ‘variety’ of different approaches, and Babette Rothschild articulates why this is essential:

‘Being versed in only one school of theory is like only being able to bake a cake from one kind of cake mix. A more tasty alternative is to keep a wide range of recipes and ingredients on hand. This makes it possible to create and choose the combination that is most appropriate at a particular time.

Knowledge is power. The therapist who is familiar with a variety of theories has many clinical possibilities open to him. He then has the potential to create interventions uniquely suited to an individual client for a particular circumstance.’ (p21 The Body Remembers – Treatment of Trauma and PTSD).

Being trained in the ‘unique integrative’ approach means that unlike many therapists that are limited to knowledge and tools from a ‘singular-school’ therapeutic modality, the ‘integrative’ therapist however, is trained in applying ‘numerous’ therapeutic modalities. An example can be applied to highlight the significant advantages the ‘integrative’ therapist has over a ‘singular-school’ approach therapist:

Considering an electrical engineer, s/he is highly skilled in electrics, yes. However, has noticeable limitations when presented with a severely damaged house, one that entails flooding, brickwork and plastering requirements in addition to the electrical damage. The ‘integrative’ therapist can be likened to the ‘multi-skilled’ caretaker, that is confidently able to consider broader angles of knowledge, apply ‘numerous’ skills and methods to repair much of the multi-layered damage. 

To ‘integrate’ means to carefully mix and blend a number of therapeutic approaches to meet the differing needs of each client.
