Therapies

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, is a relatively new therapeutic method developed by psychiatrist Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s. Despite its short history, it is widely used and its use is empirically and scientifically supported by a huge body of scientific articles, documenting its effectiveness for a wide range of psychological disorders and other health problems. CBT techniques are used in practice for both individual and couples or group therapy.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a third-generation behavioral therapy that aims to increase the psychological flexibility of the client.

Compassion-Focused Therapy

Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) is differentiated from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy by emphasizing on cultivating and developing the individual's innate capacity for compassion towards self and others.

Depression


Sometimes when people feel “down” or sad, they say that they are feeling “depressed”. Depression is a common reason why people seek for psychological help for themselves or for a close person.

Anxiety and phobias


Everyday life is really demanding for most people and even simple everyday tasks may be very time and energy consuming for an individual. Under those circumstances, people are often unable to deal with the burden that comes along with all these obligations and tasks, so they may turn to a mental health professional for extra help concerning their stress.

Relationships


Relationships play an important role in human existence and they are a common reason why people may turn to a psychologist. Some people are interested in “working” on their relationship with their partner or a friend, while others are interested in working on a relationship with a family member.

Health problems and chronic conditions


Health problems, either chronic or not, can be a big burden for an individual and one’s mental health. The chronicity of a disease may also carry other psychological and physical problems which may further restrain and burden the patient.
