Treatment Techniques

At Forward Momentum, we believe in an eclectic approach to treatment that combines various techniques to achieve the best outcomes for our clients. By utilizing a range of methods, we can tailor treatment plans to address individual needs and goals. Following is a short summary of the main treatment techniques we use in our therapeutic sessions:

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is widely recognized as the ‘gold standard’ in Psychological Therapy due to its exceptional effectiveness. It consistently delivers positive outcomes across a diverse range of presenting issues.

At our practice, CBT takes center stage as the primary treatment approach for our clients. While we may complement it with other therapeutic strategies, CBT remains the foundation of our work. In essence, CBT is a dynamic, practical, and time-sensitive therapy that employs a hands-on approach to problem-solving.

By focusing on modifying patterns of thinking and behaviors that contribute to difficulties, CBT aims to create a profound shift in emotional well-being. It addresses a wide spectrum of challenges that individuals face in their lives, from relationship complexities and sleep disturbances to substance misuse, anxiety disorders, and depression.

By exploring and transforming cognitive processes, including thoughts, images, beliefs, and attitudes, CBT empowers individuals to effectively cope with and overcome emotional struggles. Through evidence-based practices, CBT offers a path to lasting change and improved mental health.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful treatment that has been scientifically proven to effectively alleviate trauma and its debilitating effects.

With years of empirical validation, EMDR offers a unique approach in helping individuals overcome Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other related disorders.

By unlocking and reprocessing trauma memories, EMDR enables clients to move forward and leave the past where it belongs.

Natasha Kavanagh possesses extensive experience in utilizing EMDR to address a wide range of presenting issues.

At Forward Momentum Psychology Services, we believe in embracing forward movement and empowering our clients to reclaim their lives. Keep moving forward with us.
