Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy
MBCT is a psychotherapy that combines mindfulness practice and cognitive behavioral therapy to prevent depression and anxiety relapse. It helps individuals develop awareness and acceptance of their thoughts, emotions, and experiences, and learn to respond rather than react to them. MBCT usually takes the form of 8 weekly sessions, with guided meditations accompanying the program so that participants can practice skills at home throughout the course.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
Psychodynamic psychotherapy helps you to understand how your current feelings and behaviour are shaped by your unconscious mind and past experiences and relationships. Through the therapeutic relationship, psychodynamic approaches aim to bring unconscious thoughts and unresolved conflicts to the individual's awareness. It further aims to develop an understanding of past and present relationship patterns, to facilitate change. Psychodynamic psychotherapy has a substantial evidence base supporting its effectiveness for a range of mental health conditions for children and adolescents.
