      <image:title>Approaches - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a short term, solution focused and action-oriented type of psychotherapy which can help clients identify thoughts, beliefs and attitudes which affect their feelings and behaviours. CBT focuses on challenging and changing cognitive distortions (thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes). As well as helping the client become aware of their patterns and blind spots. CBT can help improve emotional regulation, demonstrates strategies for dealing with different problems and the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems. CBT focuses on the here and now, present day issues rather than the past.  CBT is an evidenced based psychotherapeutic treatment approach which can help clients actualize the skills they need to improve their relationships, happiness, and overall fulfillment in life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Approaches - Psychodynamic:</image:title>
      <image:caption>This method’s principal focus is to bring the clients attention to their unconscious thoughts, behaviors, patterns and driving symptoms that were developed from their past and earlier on in life. When the client has reached a stable point in their therapeutic treatment the introduction of Inner Child therapy can be offered to further expand this deep-rooted healing method. Inner child work will help the client reconnect with a forgotten aspect of themselves, rework past issues and traumas from childhood in a wholesome and healthy expression as an adult. Through self-awareness, understanding of one self, and expression of repressed emotions the client is able to overcome and improve interpersonal relationships and social experiences.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Approaches - Humanistic:</image:title>
      <image:caption>This approach to psychotherapy is understood as a positive method that empowers the individual to take the lead role in reviewing, acknowledging and reflecting on their own behaviours and thoughts as a whole person hence taking responsibility for themselves. The client begins to trust their internal compass and make positive changes towards transformative shifts and healing. The art of practicing mindfulness is correlated with the humanistic approach. Client centered therapy is also an aspect of the humanistic method to psychotherapy. Client centered therapy emphasizes unconditional positive regard, genuine caring for the client, non-judgemental, non- persuasive role as the therapist. Client centered therapy creates a safe environment for the client to show up as themselves and feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of judgment or rejection.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Approaches - Spiritual Psychotherapy:</image:title>
      <image:caption>This approach draws inspiration and knowledge from ancient roots and the universe rather than a specific religion. It includes a healing focus on the mind, physical body, spirit and soul. Recognizing the universe as whole rather than separate from its parts, spiritual psychotherapy is considered to be a catalyst to transcendence for those seeking a deeper conviction with faith and embodying one’s true authentic self. Shamanic rituals, energy work, chakra balancing and ancestral healings can be incorporated within the spiritual psychotherapy capacity.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Approaches - Art therapy:</image:title>
      <image:caption>This therapy is an expressive and creative approach that supports the client in becoming aware of their feelings, unconscious thoughts, past experiences and personal growth. The art expression that is created by the client can resolve and/or clarify deeper issues that may be difficult to express otherwise.</image:caption>
