Hi, I'm Courteney, I work as an integrative psychotherapist. Integrative psychotherapy is a practice where a therapist integrates elements from different models of therapy.
The modalities that I currently work in is Psychodynamic therapy, Person-centred therapy and CBT.
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how current feelings, thoughts and behaviours can be connected to and shaped by past experiences and unconscious processes.
Person-centered therapy focuses on providing empathy, congruence and acceptance to help an individual to understand and accept themselves. Person-centred therapy allows the individual to lead the therapy sessions in focusing on what they want to bring and how they would like to process their experiences.
CBT focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours can impact on someones mental and emotional wellbeing. CBT provides psycho-education, skills and techniques to help manage and overcome negative thoughts and beliefs. In addition to changing negative feelings and behaviours.
My expertise are working with clients who have experienced trauma, sexual violence, domestic abuse and childhood abuse.
Although I am also experienced in working with a range of presenting problems such as, shame, guilt, blame, low self esteem and confidence, anxiety, depression, self harm and suicidal intent, relationship difficulties and relationship attachments.
I feel it is important to develop an understanding and awareness of what your triggers are and what has caused your presenting problems as well as working with how to overcome and manage the impact of this now. I value the importance of autonomy in the therapy room, for you to have a choice in how you want to work and process through your presenting problems whilst supporting you in this journey.
I place importance on creating a safe and trusting environment whilst building a therapeutic rapport with my clients in order to provide a space for clients to explore and process their feelings, thoughts and experiences.
