Individual Therapy
Individual psychotherapy helps you to learn about yourself. We work through behavioral, communicational, thought and relational patterns. Therapy is useful when you need clarity on your values and overall direction in life, but sessions can also be used as a safe place to de-stress and work through trauma and other complex, unresolved issues.
Since every person is different, we focus on tailoring our individual counselling to suit the needs and requirements of the client. The role of the therapist is to act as a non-authoritarian, empathetic guide. Individual therapy sessions offer you a place to discuss things that weigh you down, from present issues to things from your past, or both. The first session will be mainly used to get a clear idea of your current needs.
The investment in your mental wellbeing starts at Eighty Euros per session. These sessions last for fifty minutes.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a feeling of worry or fear that everyone experiences at times. You can feel anxious or worried when you are concerned about something you are experiencing or that is about to happen
While anxiety is a normal reaction to stress, people who suffer from anxiety disorder may find the physical and mental symptoms overwhelming to the extent that they can't manage their life day-to-day.
Depression
Depression (also called major depressive disorder or clinical depression) is a common but serious mood disorder. It causes severe symptoms that affect how you feel, think, and handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working.
Depression can happen at any age, but often begins in adulthood. Depression is now recognized as occurring in children and adolescents, although it sometimes presents with more prominent irritability than low mood. Many chronic mood and anxiety disorders in adults begin as high levels of anxiety in children.
