Welcome to Advanced Therapeutic Services. We offer a range of
therapeutic services including one to one therapy, couples therapy, case management, coaching, interventions, assessment & treatment planning to help with various issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, addiction in its various forms (drugs and alcohol, eating disorders, sex addiction, love addiction, and co-dependency) and any challenge of life that you might find difficult, we believe that you can overcome these issues, and that we can help you to do so.
Therapy offers a non judgemental, safe, and confidential space where you can talk through and explore the issues that are bothering you with a trained professional. It allows you to express your concerns and the feelings that are related to them. Your therapist will help you to understand how your beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are interlinked. They will help you get to the root of your issues, that you can then find a way to understand, face, and overcome the problems you are facing.
Often there are behaviours or barriers at play in the present, that have roots in the past and need addressing. In relation to this, there are often buried unresolved feelings and experiences that are causing depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions that are keeping you trapped in destructive cycles that are preventing you from your potential. When these issues are stored within us and left unresolved, they have a way of playing out and manifesting into many of the issues highlighted above as the presenting problems. One of the things that therapy helps to do is to get to the root of these problems so that they can be addressed and resolved.
There are various styles of therapy, and they are continuing to grow as we grow and develop in understanding. At Advanced Therapeutic Services we believe in finding the right way for you. This is why we offer an integrative approach, that is adapted according to your unique individual personality, history, circumstances, and needs. Integrative psychotherapy covers a number of therapy modalities so that it can be tailored to you. We take this matter further by offering an assessment and treatment planning service that allows us to understand you and what it is that you need.
Therapy can be done short term or long term. Short term therapy will tend to focus more on addressing the current issues you may be facing, giving a place to explore solutions to them. Long term psychotherapy will address the deeper roots of your difficulties in a more extensive manner whilst also addressing the current presenting problems. Therapy can be done on a one to one basis, as a couple, a family, or even in a group depending on your needs and circumstances.
