Areas of Practice
Therapeutic Services
We provide therapeutic services to meet the needs of our clients, whether facing the normal challenges of life, or healing from painful and traumatic experiences.
Training and workshops
We promote innovation and best practice through high quality training.
We can provide training on site for organisations as well as other locations. We are currently in the process of developing web-based training to provide flexibility and accessibility without compromising quality.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a specialist therapy that helps the brain process traumatic experiences. In 2013 the World Health Organisation recommended EMDR in the treatment of trauma for adults and children.
Supervision, Consultation and leadership
We have extensive experience in the development of resources and training on leadership, reflective practice and supervision. Our supervision training draws together a number of concepts from neuroscience, attachment theories and leadership, and helps participants apply these in practical ways.
