• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helping you change negative thinking patterns and behaviours.
• Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT): Balancing acceptance and change through mindfulness and emotional regulation.
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Helping you to overcome difficult situations, emotions and thoughts and reduce avoidance.
