If you have not started a therapy yet, even though you’ve been meaning to for a long time, let yourself in what integrative psychotherapy can offer.

If you are at the critical point where you think you don’t want to hear about psychotherapy anymore, now that is the point to try integrative psychotherapy.

What is integrative psychotherapy?

Integrative psychotherapy is probably the most flexible modern therapeutic approach. It is an intersection of different therapeutic approaches that match the client’s needs at a particular point in their development to achieve the most significant long-term positive effects on their behavior.

Integrative psychotherapy is sensitive to the therapeutic alliance.

In a healthy therapeutic relationship, a client feels supported by the therapist in a way that encourages them to confront difficult issues. In the same way, the therapist feels respected and challenged to look for the most suitable therapy solutions.

Integrative psychotherapy is effective for both short-term and long-term therapy experiences. It can be adapted to work with children, adolescents, adults and families. This makes it one of the most versatile types of therapy available today.

Why should you come to my psychotherapy office? Because…

…you feel you need a creative, resourceful, flexible therapist who uses therapeutic metaphor.

…you feel like you need a therapist who gives you techniques and strategies that can easily be applied in your everyday life.

…you feel that you need a therapist who is up to date with researches in the field and adjusts his methods accordingly.

…you feel you need a therapist who doesn’t want to get too emotionally involved, using their own emotions only to help you understand your feelings.

…you want a safe space where you are helped to explore your thoughts, feelings and actions without fear of being criticized for the choices you make.

…you wish to begin the arduous but fascinating journey of self-discovery, self-awareness, acceptance of what and how you are right now.

…you want to make healthier life choices.

Some of the valuable things you can get* from the therapy I offer:

  • Changing perspective on the difficult situations you face
  • Improved insight into your life history
  • Drawing healthy boundaries in any type of relationship
  • Awareness and adjustment of the way you communicate
  • Awareness of dysfunctional thoughts that block your evolution
  • More relaxation and less reactivity
  • Sometimes you will feel worse, which is good
  • Those who matter to you will notice the changes you make
  • You start saying No in a way that doesn’t hurt anyone and doesn’t make you feel guilty
  • Instead of living only in your imagination, you will begin to develop realistic and attainable goals

*Most people wonder how long the therapy “bears fruit”. The problem with therapy is that it doesn’t work the way, say, a drug might for clear symptoms. We take the medicine and hope that after a certain period of time those symptoms go away. Therapy means time and willingness to explore and treat the deep source of the wound.

Therapeutic metaphor

We are our own stories. The ones we build, we reconfigure in different spaces and from different events, with the people-characters we meet, using our ability to perceive and place things in our psychic structure in a way that belongs to each of us.

Psychotherapy is one of the most suitable frameworks in which the story of one’s own life journey is encouraged and desired. By telling their life stories in the psychotherapist’s office, people are prepared to reorganize their affective-emotional map and understand which aspects of their lives need therapeutic intervention, so that they can live a fulfilling life,  according to their fundamental construction. They become the actors of their own transformation in the interaction with the specialist who guides the conversation and establishes the formal and scientific framework.

But what happens when we don’t accept the evidence, when our cognitive distortions sit comfortably and seem unshakable, generating lines of decisions that are among the most destructive for our lives?

I use the therapeutic metaphor in my work. This means that I encourage you to put in a new light the fragments of your life path, I show that you can access the unconscious abysses without fear, that you can give a new face and a different voice to deep inner processes.

Don't dream of the day you'll be fine. Just feel it.

If you’ve made it this far, keep going.
