Two people having a supportive counseling session in a bright room

Approach

It is an integrative method which includes:


  • CBT (Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy)
  • Gestalt
  • Positive Psychology
  • NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming)

This therapeutic process focuses on empowering individuals through self-awareness, discovering the underlying causes of one's thoughts and behaviors, which helps to make positive lifestyle changes.

It explores the differences between what you want to do and what you actually do. Also helps to overcome the challenges you may face on daily basis, trying to remove the obstacles that might prevent you from fulfilling your goals.

The sessions are tailored to each individual's personality, their motivation for seeking counselling and their current state of life. It's an ideal moment to share intimate thoughts and feelings without any fear of being judged or criticized. To help clients gain the maximum benefit, I design specific assignments suited to their needs in order to continue our work between sessions.

I use various tools to make the therapeutic process more dynamic and effective, such as:

  • Worksheets and Handouts: These can help clients track their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Examples include thought records, behavioral activation charts, and cognitive distortions worksheets.
  • Guided Activities: Activities like journaling, mindfulness exercises, and grounding techniques can help clients manage their emotions and develop coping skills.
  • Skill Development: Teaching specific skills such as problem-solving, assertiveness training, and stress management techniques.
  • Homework Assignments: Encouraging clients to practice skills learned in sessions at home to reinforce new behaviors and thought patterns.

I believe the most helpful and productive process includes a genuine human connection together with a good professional background.
