At Mendable Psychology, we help adults untangle complicated family dynamics, build healthier relationships, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Counselling Approaches

You may have come across a variety of terms such as CBT, ACT, EMDR, EFT and so on. Perhaps you’re wondering with the heck they all mean – or maybe you don’t care and just want to feel better. There are many different approaches available; some commonly used therapy approaches that we offer are described below.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioural therapy, often just called CBT, is an evidence-based approach for a wide range of mental health concerns. CBT is based on the premise that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours all influence one another. That is, we can change our thought patterns as a means of also changing our feelings and behaviours. CBT is an effective treatment for concerns such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and disordered eating.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is a therapy approach that can also be compatible with many other types of approaches. EMDR uses eye movements or other side to side movements to work through processing overwhelming emotions and events. EMDR is recognized as a first line treatment for post traumatic stress, which can be effective for decreasing big emotions tied to past stressful events.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, also known as “ACT” is therapy approach that uses six core processes to help clients become more psychologically flexible. Psychological inflexibility is well know by ACT therapists to be a risk factor for a variety of mental health concerns. ACT focuses on decreasing rigid thinking though patterns and accepting the present moment without judgement and taking steps to living that are aligned with your personal values.

Grief Therapy Approaches

There are many different approaches to working with grief, but not one approach fits all. Grief can involve the death of a loved one, the loss of a pet, the loss of a relationship, anticipatory grief, or a number of other situations that comprise ambiguous loss.

Emotionally Focused Therapy

Emotionally Focused Therapy is an approach developed, originally for couples counselling, to address security in the relationship and unmet needs. EFT is now used in helping couples, families, and in individual therapy. EFiT, the model for working with individuals, focuses on the attachment needs of a person and building secure attachments as an adult.
