Fulfilments Counselling

The main idea behind integrative therapy is that you are unique, and what would work perfectly for you is not necessarily what would work for other people. I will make a program of therapy that suits your personal needs and issues.

Integrative therapy is increasingly the most common type of therapy. Given the wide array of therapies on offer nowadays, I have undertaken several forms of training in relation to counselling/ emotional wellbeing as well as years of studies of integrative therapy that unifies different schools of psychotherapeutic thought. Completing over 450 hours with clients while I was a trainee integrative counsellor I have found a way to blend what I have learnt by putting them together that produces results for my clients. As your integrative therapist, I am committed to being part of your inner exploration and growth. I work to be supportive and non-judgemental, listening with an open and present mind, and seeing you as equal.

What is the aim of integrative therapy? The aim of delivering integrative therapy is to help you explore what is causing you problems in life and to create a bespoke program to help you begin to approach life in a more open and productive way. But it is also about helping you function at your best levels in all areas of your life – mental, emotional, and physical. Integrative therapy is about integrating yourself, and all of the various parts of your personality and being, into a balanced and effective whole.

As with most therapies, for the therapy to be effective, it is vital to focus on what happens in the relationship between client and counsellor. Research shows that the relationship with your therapist or counsellor is as important as the actual method they use.

What are the benefits of integrative therapy? You might find integrative therapy beneficial in the following ways:

   you will learn to recognise what triggers you into unhelpful behaviours and be supported in trying new, more productive ones
   you can recognise limitations you’ve set on yourself and find ways to move beyond them
   you can integrate all the different aspects of yourself (mind, body, emotions, social skills, spirituality)
   you can set goals that lead you toward the life you feel happy about
   you can begin to face your life in a more open, available, and less judgemental way

Integrative therapy is beneficial for the following issues:

How is integrative therapy different than other forms of therapy?
