Psychological therapy is also known as ‘talking therapy’. It involves using evidence-based approaches to identify difficulties in our lives and provide skills and knowledge to build on our existing strengths to help us make useful changes. Here is some information about the different approaches we are trained in: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) CBT teaches skills to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and unhelpful patterns of behaviour so that we can feel more balanced and in control of our emotions. Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) ACT teaches us to identify our life values and goals. With ACT, we learn how to live to our values even when we face difficult events or situations that cannot necessarily be changed. Brief Solution Focused Therapy (BFST) BSFT focuses on finding solutions and finding ways to move forward, using our strengths rather than focusing on problems and letting them get in the way of what’s important. Compassionate Mind Therapy This therapy teaches us how to be kind to ourselves and helps us to challenge self-critical thoughts. Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) EMDR is used to help people resolve traumatic images and thoughts that get ‘stuck’ after an event. It can achieve rapid results and is evidence-based. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/f4632cd7-e3f6-452b-960b-d6242b124274/psychologyworksnz.jpg What is psychological therapy? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-03-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/8423bbcd-582c-4002-913c-2b02b1635f7f/1.png Contact us https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/get-urgent-help daily 0.75 2026-01-05 https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/about-nikki daily 0.75 2025-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/ee5767aa-a6e5-4c8c-914e-b353e21f46bc/image0.jpeg https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/about-nicola-cann daily 0.75 2026-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/2cd38e58-6f2d-4b8d-a8e5-408ed3ff2afa/NC.jpg https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/about-charlotte-pennington daily 0.75 2025-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/f5c535c4-1e1b-4083-ba25-0de68c71be68/Charlotte-2+crop+%281%29.jpeg https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/about-geoff-sutton daily 0.75 2025-05-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/6f4e6e63-6453-41b8-9025-eaa0d906ccc0/Picture1.jpg https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/about-winnie-chiu daily 0.75 2025-07-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/c41018a6-53f3-4274-8372-f1b1eeef872e/Winnie+Photo.jpg https://www.psychologyworksnz.com/about-jacqui-gregory daily 0.75 2025-10-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/621451aba0115817a59f52dc/35ce5f78-5f76-483a-8adf-9c73d60da963/Image.jpeg
