Psychotherapy — also called talk therapy or therapy — is a process focused on helping you heal and learn more constructive ways to deal with the problems or issues within your life such as anxiety and or depression. It is a supportive process when going through a difficult period or under increased stress, or when there is a difficulty with a life, relationship or work issue.
"Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps you manage your problems by thinking more positively. It frees you from unhelpful patterns of behaviour. CBT is based on the idea that the way you think about a situation affects how you act. Your actions then affect the way you think and feel. So, it is necessary to change both thinking (cognition) and what you do (behaviour) at the same time. CBT has been shown to work for a variety of mental health problems, such as : Depression, Anxiety, Panic Disorders, Phobias, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post-traumatic Stress Disordersome eating disorders, especially Bulimia." ( Talking therapies- HSE.ie )
Family therapy: A type of psychotherapy designed to identify family patterns that contribute to a behavior disorder or mental illness and help family members break those habits. Family therapy involves discussion and problem-solving sessions with the family. Some of these sessions may be as a group, in couples, or one on one.
Play Therapy uses a variety of play and creative arts techniques to alleviate chronic, mild and moderate psychological and emotional conditions in children that are causing behavioural problems and/or are preventing children from realising their potential.
The Pilates Club is owned by a chartered physiotherapist and STOTT trained pilates instructor, Julieann Behan. Julieann has been working as a physiotherapist for 15 years specialising in Orthopaedic physiotherapy. Through her vast physio experience, Julieann discovered the complimentary health benefits that Pilates provides. We are very proud Julieann has chosen the Lighthouse Clinic for her world-class studio.
