The Northern Guild offers a wide array of therapeutic services, all of which are facilitated by highly trained accredited professionals who support people in making the changes they want to their lives.
It is worth knowing though, that whatever the type of therapy, a really important factor in bringing about change is a good therapeutic relationship with your counsellor or psychotherapist. Here at the Guild, considerable skill and experience is brought to identifying the right therapist for you from the team of skilled professionals.
Therapists at the Guild are trained in integrating appropriate types of therapy to offer the best outcome for clients. No single school of therapy has all the answers for any one client, so a mix of approaches often works best. The choice of therapy is directed by the needs of the client.
Therapists are trained in a psychodynamic approach which allows exploration of past experiences and connecting them with current difficulties. They also draw on:
Transactional analysis and gestalt therapy are both highly effective in bringing to light areas of stuckness in life and relationships, and working with them in a lively and engaging way.
Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and solution-focused approaches are very useful for identifying distorted ways of thinking or behaving which are causing problems and working with them in shorter term approach.
In addition to these major schools of therapy, there are also specialist techniques and therapies which are appropriate in particular cases. Some examples of these also include;
- Critical Incident de-briefing Psychotherapy & Counselling
