What is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is an evidence-based therapeutic practice that supports people to explore emotional, mental, relational, somatic and personal patterns in a safe, confidential and reflective setting.
It takes a whole-person approach, recognising that wellbeing can be shaped by thoughts, emotions, relationships, life experiences, culture, spirituality and the way stress is held or expressed through the body.
Psychotherapy is generally a deeper and more reflective process than counselling. It may take place over a longer period of time, allowing space to understand how past experiences, relationship patterns, beliefs, emotions and body-based responses may be influencing life in the present.
Through this process, psychotherapy can support greater self-awareness, emotional insight, personal growth and more conscious ways of responding to life’s challenges.
People seek psychotherapy to help with:
Emotional overwhelm or distress
Relationship and family difficulties
Stress, anxiety or low mood
Grief, loss or major life changes
Past experiences affecting the present
Feeling stuck in repeated patterns
Identity, purpose or self-understanding
Mind-body stress responses
Personal growth and deeper reflection
