​Therapy Types Offered

 

​Holistic Counselling Mind, Body & Soul Connection

Our holistic approach blends modern psychology and neurological science with traditional philosophies such as Buddhism and yogic knowledge.  Understanding that everyone is unique, we explore an individual's emotional, physical, mental and spiritual aspects to find personalised solutions. ​

​

We draw on a range of therapeutic methods, including:

​

  • Person-Centered Psychotherapy  

  • Holistic Counselling  

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy  (CBT)

  • Positive Psychology  

  • Emotionally Focussed Therapy (EFT)

  • Solution-Focused Therapy

  • Trauma Informed Counselling

​

Each method is backed by research and tailored to your specific needs. In our sessions, you’ll gain insight into your thoughts and behaviors and discover practical strategies aligned with your goals. This helps you reframe unhelpful thought patterns, handle challenges, and build resilience.  

​​​

Person-centred Therapy

Person-centered Therapy helps clients explore their thoughts and feelings in a supportive environment free of judgment. The therapist uses empathy, active listening, warmth, unconditional positive regard and open questions to facilitate this process. This approach helps clients understand their emotions and behaviors better. With increased awareness, clients find solutions and heal by overcoming fear and self-doubt.​ Grounded in positive psychology, we focus on your strengths and resources to help you handle difficult situations. Most importantly, this approach encourages you to connect with your inner self, leading to insight and clarity that can bring about meaningful change.

​

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective and evidence-based psychological treatment. CBT is founded on the understanding that our thoughts significantly influence our feelings and behaviors. This therapy involves identifying and challenging negative or distorted thought patterns and replacing them with more realistic and constructive ones. By doing so, you can experience positive changes in your emotions and behaviors.

 

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a collaborative approach where you partner with your therapist, and your voice is valued. The therapist encourages active participation and collaboration, empowering you to take charge of your journey toward mental wellness.

CBT focuses on skill development, helping you build a toolkit of practical skills designed to manage and maintain your mental health long after your sessions end. This enables you to navigate life’s ups and downs with greater stability. 

 

CBT is typically a short-term treatment, and many clients notice significant improvements in just a few months, allowing them to embrace life’s possibilities with renewed energy. CBT offers these benefits:

​

  • Collaborative therapeutic relationship

  • Involves learning new practical, personal skills

  • presents a new perspective on your thought patterns & unconscious beliefs

  • Feel and manage better in just a few sessions​

​​

Couples Counselling with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

We offer Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples strengthen their relationships. Our therapist will guide you and your partner towards a deeper connection and understanding.

  • Rebuild trust and intimacy.

  • Navigate conflicts with empathy and better communication.

  • Understand your emotional patterns and their impact.

  • Feel heard and validated in a supportive setting.

  • Explore emotions without judgment.

  • Achieve emotional relief and personal growth as a couple.

  • Develop resilience and empowerment together.

  • Handle relationship challenges confidently and clearly.

 

Take the first step towards a healthier relationship. Contact us to schedule your initial free consultation and start your journey with EFT for couples.

 

 

 

​​​​​​​​

Solution-focused therapy (SFT)

Solution-focused therapy (SFT) is a goal-oriented, future-focused psychotherapy approach that emphasises solutions over problems. It helps individuals use their strengths and resources to make positive changes.

Instead of analysing past issues, SFT encourages clients to envision their desired future and take practical steps towards it. Techniques like scaling questions, miracle questions, and exception-finding guide clients in finding effective solutions tailored to their needs. SFT is useful for individuals, couples, and families dealing with various challenges.

Miracle Question: Imagine your problem disappeared overnight. Describe your ideal life, clarifying your goals.

Scaling Questions: Rate your situation on a scale to track improvement and identify steps forward.

Exception-Finding: Explore moments when the problem was less severe to find effective strategies.

Compliments and Strengths-Based Questions: Recognize successes and strengths to boost confidence and motivation.

Small Action Steps: Take manageable steps towards your goals rather than drastic changes.

Bridgit's Life Journey

 

Bridgit is a dedicated professional who cares deeply about people, animals and nature. Bridgit pursued her passion for psychology and personal development by studying holistic counselling and psychotherapy in 2010. She obtained a Graduate Diploma in Holistic Counselling and received training in life coaching. Her interest in personal development motivated her to merge psychotherapy and well-being with her knowledge of the natural environment.

 

Bridgit believes that staying connected with nature is beneficial and therapeutic for people. Her work centres on the relationship between self-knowledge, loving relationships, healthy living, and spiritual awareness, helping individuals become confident, creative, and fully expressive.

Bridgit started her successful career as a Landscape Architect in Sydney in her early years. In 2000, she fulfilled her lifelong dream and moved her business to a rural property in the Southern Highlands of NSW. There, she transformed exhausted farmland, overgrazed and cleared, into a sanctuary for animals and eco-friendly living in Kangaroo Valley. Bridgit formed a deep connection with the natural environment by planting over 2500 trees, building dams and wetlands, and creating an oasis for wildlife and domestic animals. She also contributes to the rescue and rehabilitation of injured birds for WIRES. She loves spending time in her garden with her pets and native wildlife.
