Everything you need to know about CBT
Feeling overwhelmed? Struggling with negative thoughts? CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) could be the answer. It's a talk therapy focusing on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Think of it as rewiring your brain! CBT helps identify negative thought patterns that fuel emotional distress. By challenging these patterns and learning coping skills, you can develop healthier ways of thinking and behaving.

EMDR: How does it work?
Stuck carrying emotional baggage from the past? EMDR therapy can help! It's a therapy technique targeting disturbing memories. Imagine your brain filing memories. Trauma disrupts this, leaving them "stuck" and easily triggered. EMDR helps unlock these memories and reprocess them in a healthy way. During sessions, you focus on the memory while experiencing bilateral stimulation (eye movements, tapping). This helps your brain process the memory and reduce its emotional hold on you. EMDR is effective for PTSD, anxiety, depression, and more!

What is the humanistic approach?
Feeling like a cog in a machine? Humanistic therapy sees you differently! It focuses on your potential for growth, not diagnoses or labels. Imagine a therapy that views you as a whole person, capable of great things. Humanistic therapy does that! It emphasises free will, self-discovery, and your ability to find meaning in life. The therapist acts as a supportive guide, while you explore your thoughts and feelings. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, relationships, and more. It focuses on your strengths and empowers you to find your own solutions. If you're looking for a therapy that celebrates your potential, consider the humanistic approach at MOH. We'll support you on your journey to self-actualisation!

What is DBT?
Emotions on a rollercoaster? DBT therapy helps! It equips you with skills to manage intense feelings, improve relationships, and tolerate stress. Imagine accepting your emotions while learning to manage them. DBT teaches mindfulness, distress tolerance, communication skills, and emotional regulation. It can help with emotional dysregulation, self-harm, and more. Individual therapy and group training sessions help you build a support network and develop the skills to create a more balanced life. Reach out to MOH for DBT and take charge of your emotional well-being!

Is psychodynamic therapy right for me?
Ever wonder why you react a certain way? Past experiences, hidden conflicts – these lurk beneath the surface, like the unseen bulk of an iceberg. Psychodynamic therapy dives deep, exploring this unconscious mind. It's like uncovering submerged memories and emotions, leading to a deeper understanding of why you behave the way you do. This self-awareness empowers you to break free from unhelpful patterns and live a more fulfilling life.
