What to expect
We recognise that each of our clients are unique. We will structure the sessions in line with the client’s requirements, taking the issues and treatment plans into consideration. We meet weekly with our clients for a minimum of 6 weeks. The client can expect the practitioner to be curious and seek to understand the client’s worldview, through process, history, behavioural patterns, stressors and how they all contribute to how the client feels. We may also assign homework and practice navigating situations in sessions.
OK Talk Counselling uses a range of approaches and therapies, including:
Person-centred therapy
This therapy encourages the client to see themselves as the master of their own personal growth with the counsellor providing positive support and empathy
Psychodynamic psychotherapy
With this therapy, the counsellor and client explore unconscious and past experiences which may be deep-rooted and negatively influencing current behavior
Solution-focused therapy
Here, the focus of the therapy is not dwelling on the past but promoting positive change in the client’s present and future
Transactional analysis
This involves exploring a client’s adoption of three ego states – Parent, Adult and Child – and how each can determine that individual’s interaction and behavior towards others
Cognitive behavioural therapy [CBT]
This therapy focuses on helping the client identify and challenge negative feelings, thoughts and behavior so they can deal with situations in a more positive way
Emotionally focused therapy
With this therapy, the counsellor helps the client, typically families and couples, to understand their own and others’ emotions with the aim of improving the relationship
Creative therapy
This therapy involves helping the client explore feelings and emotions through a range of expressive and creative techniques beyond talking, such as writing, sand play and music
Art therapy
Uses techniques of artistry including drawing, painting and photography as a way for the client to express, communicate and explore issues, feelings and emotions beyond words
Family therapy
This therapy enables couples, family members or others in close relationships to safely share and explore difficult thoughts or emotions and experience different perspectives
Play therapy
Most commonly used with children, play therapy encourages expression in a safe, secure and comfortable environment
