Integrative Psychotherapy

Integrative Psychotherapy is a flexible and comprehensive approach to mental health that moves beyond the constraints of single theoretical models. Instead of adhering strictly to one school of thought, such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural, or humanistic therapy, integrative therapists draw upon various therapeutic approaches and techniques.

This allows for a more personalised and holistic understanding of the individual and their unique challenges. At its core, integrative psychotherapy operates on the principle that no single therapeutic approach holds all the answers for every individual.

As therapists are trained in a model, then, over their careers, they keep training, adding in and blending the latest approaches to their approach so that each client’s needs are met in a bespoke approach, meeting clients’ specific needs, personality, presenting problems, and the context of their life.


The process typically begins with a thorough assessment to understand the client’s history, current difficulties, coping mechanisms, and goals for therapy. The therapist pays attention to various aspects of the client’s experience, including their thoughts, feelings, behaviours, physical sensations, and relational patterns.

How Integrative Psychotherapy Works with me:


As an integrative therapist, a range of techniques will be thoughtfully selected and combined to facilitate your growth and healing. The main modalities are counselling psychotherapy, EMDR, Parks Inner Child Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Somatics, Metaphysical, Hypnotherapy and transpersonal approaches.

We explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences through verbal communication, as well as identifying and modifying negative or unhelpful thought patterns. We incorporate cognitive understanding and how it informs maladaptive behaviours, and how we can change our long-held subconscious reactions. We work together to promote emotional processing and self-awareness through direct experience.

Space will always be held for focusing on the dynamics within the therapeutic relationship as a mirror for other relationships, often informed by attachment theory and interpersonal therapy. Whilst incorporating techniques that enhance present moment awareness and the connection between mind and body.


As your therapist I will be your guide, collaborator, champion, your vision when you cannot see a way forward and facilitator, building a strong therapeutic alliance based on empathy, trust, and understanding.

The focus is on helping you, the client, integrate different aspects of yourself, develop a coherent sense of self, and make meaningful changes in your life.
