Carol Lacey

Psychotherapist and Counsellor

My approach aims to

Help you understand your issues clearly
Establish therapeutic and life goals
Positively change any unhelpful thinking patterns or self-beliefs
Reduce the physical stress with Mindfulness skills
Create greater emotional understanding
Enable you to work through issues and problems

Therapy provides a safe and confidential space to share with someone professionally trained but also separate from your current relationships. This different relationship provides the opportunity to explore and share without judgement, creating the potential for new perspectives and change. I work with clients in a gentle and focused way to support positive change.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on unconscious processes driving a person’s present behaviour.

The goals of psychodynamic therapy are developing a client’s understanding of the influence of the past on present behaviour creating greater self-awareness.

CBT

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a short-term, goal-oriented psychotherapy treatment. Its goal is to change patterns of thinking and behaviour underlying a person’s difficulties, and so change the way they feel.

Attachment Based Therapy

Attachment-based therapy is an approach to therapy that specifically targets those thoughts, feelings, communications, behaviours, clients have learned either to suppress, avoid, or overemphasize because of early developmental experiences.

The goal is to address the limiting effects of negative early attachment experiences and strengthen the ability for secure relationships and adopt new approaches to living.
