Methods
I am a certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a scientifically based method for solving problems in the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral field. It is acknowledged as an efficient method for the treatment of mental disorders. It constitutes a solid foundation for the treatment of mental disorders, for prevention and for dealing with a variety of issues. But in my experience it can be helpful to integrate different approaches, depending on the client, the problem and the situation. Below you find a list of the procedures, methods and techniques I most frequently work with, over time I will add descriptions to all the methods mentioned:
- CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
- Mindfulness
- Focusing
- Schematherapy
- Trauma Therapy
- Stabilisation, e.g. with the help of imagination exercises (e.g. according to Luise Reddeman)
- Trauma confrontation making use of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
- EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
- ART (Affect Regulation Training)
- DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy)
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
