I work from an Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) framework, which besides being a mouthful to say, is an evidence-based approach designed to uncover and work through hidden, avoided emotions that often lie at the heart of psychological and physical difficulties.
Decades of psychotherapy research have shown that unresolved emotions—along with their associated thoughts and memories—can contribute to issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and even physical symptoms.
ISTDP works by focusing on the connection between emotions and the body, helping you become more aware of how these unresolved feelings may contribute to your struggles.
Together, we identify the mechanisms that prevent deeper emotional experiences from coming to the surface, working through any barriers to full awareness. By resolving these underlying issues, ISTDP helps not only to alleviate distress but also to prevent problems from returning.
This approach is highly interactive and flexible, tailored to your unique needs and goals. It emphasises efficiency, so you can start experiencing improvements as quickly as possible. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or other challenges, ISTDP offers a powerful way to heal and move forward.
