CBT or Psychodynamic Therapy?

​You may have heard CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) mentioned a lot recently, perhaps by your GP or in the media. CBT is very popular as a short-term therapy approach that focuses on changing thoughts and beliefs. CBT is different from a psychodynamic approach, in that it doesn't aim to explore underlying feelings or emotions and it doesn't look at your past relationships or early experiences. If you go to a CBT therapist you will be set homework and tasks aimed at helping you to change your short-term thought patterns and behaviours. A psychodynamic therapist will encourage you to explore deeply your feelings and experiences, this will enable you to gain insight, catharsis and resolve long-standing problems. Different therapies suit different people; it is important that you choose the right therapy for you. 

If you would like to talk to me to discuss what kind of therapy would suit you, please  call or email me.
