Approaches
Because everyone is different, it is important to choose the most effective approaches for each individual. Approaches include:
​
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Clinical Hypnosis
EMDR
Schema Therapy
Mindfulness Meditation
Virtual Reality
BioFeedback
Solution Focussed, Narrative,
Schema and Emotion Focussed Therapies
Shijoku (Forest Bathing)
​
Assessment
Using psychometric tests helps both myself and clients understand underlying personality and diagnostic aspects to provide a roadmap to recovery.
​
Tests include:
​
Personality [MMPI-2]
Measures of resilience & ability to cope with pressure and change [MTQ+]
Depression, Anxiety & Stress [DASS21]
Post Traumatic Stress [PCL]
Eating Disorder [EQ]
Schema [SQI]
And, because it's important to know how clients are responding and how effective they find sessions, I use the Outcome Rating Scale (client self-report of well-being) and the Session Rating Scale (client satisfaction and engagement)
