Part 3: Person-Centred Therapy...

In this model we believe you are the expert in your own life. The therapy isn't about directing or telling you if you are wrong, unless you, as the expert, believe you need more direction. Instead, the focus is on guiding you to reach your own conclusions and epiphanies in a genuine and supportive way. It is about understanding the inner meaning to the words you use in a process of self discovery. The model believes that all human beings innately look for personal growth and self-actualisation.

This short video gives a concise overview of the components of Person-Centred Therapy and its origins.

Part 2 - Attachment Theory Approaches...

Attachment Theory Approaches are about comparing the emotional bonds that people develop during childhood to the ones they form in adulthood.

There are a number of different attachment styles. Your attachment style can help us to identify and explore how you relate to people, what you seek in your bonds with others, how your style impacts the dynamics in your relationships and how you react when your style doesn’t get what you want in a relationship.

It can also be powerful to explore the reasons why you may have moved from one attachment style in childhood to another in your adult life.

The following video outlines the effects and benefits of Attachment Theory Approaches.

Every counsellor has a different approach to the way they counsel. It’s one thing to say that my approach is “Trauma-Informed, Attachment Theory based, Person-Centred Therapy”. But, what does all that mean to a person in need of support?

Over the next week I'll be unpacking the basics of the three main therapy models that I use in my practice and how they could be beneficial for you or for someone you care about.

So, to start us off, here’s a look at…

Part 1: Trauma Informed Care

Trauma is much more common than people believe. When we experience trauma as children, despite our best efforts, it often stays with us into our adult life. Trauma-Informed Care is about understanding the events and triggers that have shaped your individual life and understandings. Working together becomes more profound when traumatic understandings are acknowledged as it gives a richer context for your life and how best to work with you based on your past trauma.

In the below video, Dr. Meredith Fox describes how trauma and trauma informed care affected one woman's life.

Stay tuned for parts 2 and 3 - Attachment Theory Approaches and Person-Centred Therapy.

Thanks, J. Fox Counselling.
