Therapy Available from CBT Consultancy

Anxiety and worry can be debilitating and crippling. We offer CBT therapy for anxiety to help you manage your fears, stress, anxiety and worrisome behaviours. The therapy is supportive and non-judgmental and will allow you to explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights into your behaviour, and develop strategies to manage your anxiety.

Depression is usually accompanied by feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and despair. We offer individualised therapy for depression rooted in the principles of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) but incorporating principles from compassion focused therapy (CFT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). The therapy is designed to enhance your feelings of self-compassion and self-love and will help you develop life long skills to manage your mood.

Traumatic events can at times lead to guilt, fear, unwanted memories, flashbacks and unhelpful behaviours. We use evidence-based techniques to help you heal from the psychological impact of trauma, including PTSD, anxiety, and depression. We provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your experiences and develop strategies to move forward.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a condition in which intrusions, images and urges lead to repetitive and time consuming behaviours, referred to as compulsions. This mental health difficulty can be crippling and debilitating. Our CBT-based therapy is designed to identify the meaning attached to your images, intrusions and urges in order to reduce their power and develop life long skills to cope with them.

Social anxiety is associated with feelings of anxiety and discomfort in social situations, where the sufferer worries about being judged by others.  Our CBT-based approach will help you distinguish between your perceived appearance in front of others and how you actually appear. You will also learn skills to help you shift your focus externally so you can enjoy social interactions and appear more confident.

Uncontrolled anger can lead to loss of trust and valued relationships. Our CBT-based approach will help you identify your rules for living, which when violated lead to anger. The therapist will support you in adjusting some of these rules and developing skills that will help you manage your anger in healthier ways, ultimately leading to improved relationships with others.

Specific phobias such as agoraphobia, acrophobia, claustrophobia, vomit phobia and blood injury phobia can severely impair an individual, limit their life and lead to a shrinking of their world. Using the CBT approach our therapists will support you in understanding the root causes of your phobia, helping you to develop a more realistic view of your feared stimuli and challenging you to start to face some of your fears.

Panic attacks can be extremely frightening and can lead to severe impairment in one's functioning. Our experienced therapists will help you understand the physiology and neuroscience behind your panic attacks and will help you develop lifelong skills to help you mitigate, manage and cope with your panic attacks.
