One to One Counselling

Linnet is an experienced one-to-one and couples counsellor who is passionate about guiding individuals and couples towards mental and relational wellness and growth. With a diverse background in Integrative Counselling (CBT, Psychodynamic, Person-Centred Approach), Hypnotherapy, and EMDR, Linnet offers a tailored therapeutic experience that caters to your unique needs and preferences.

Approaches Explained:

  1. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) explores the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. CBT helps individuals develop healthier coping mechanisms and improve their overall mental well-being by identifying and challenging negative thought patterns.
  2. Psychodynamic: Rooted in understanding how past experiences shape present behaviours and emotions, psychodynamic therapy delves into the unconscious mind to uncover unresolved conflicts and patterns. Through exploration and insight, clients can better understand themselves and their relationships.
  3. Person-Centred Therapy: At the core of person-centred therapy is believing in each individual’s capacity for self-actualisation and growth. Providing a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment empowers clients to explore their feelings, values, and goals, fostering personal development and self-discovery.
  4. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): EMDR is a psychotherapy approach that has been effective in treating trauma-related disorders, including PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), anxiety, and phobias. This therapy involves recalling distressing memories while simultaneously undergoing bilateral stimulation. This bilateral stimulation is thought to facilitate the processing of traumatic memories, allowing the individual to reprocess them more adaptively, ultimately reducing the emotional distress associated with the traumatic event.
  5. Hypnotherapy: Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that utilises hypnosis to induce a relaxed state of consciousness, also known as a trance state. In this state, individuals are more open to suggestions and can access their subconscious mind more readily. Hypnotherapy can be used to address a variety of issues, including anxiety, phobias, smoking cessation, weight loss, and chronic pain management.
  6. Couples Counselling: Couples counselling with Linnet is a collaborative process aimed at strengthening relationships, enhancing communication, and resolving conflicts.

  • Communication Improvement: Effective communication is key to a healthy relationship. Linnet helps couples develop better communication skills, fostering understanding and empathy.
