BRIEF THERAPIES FOR EVERYONE

Unlike classical therapy (psychoanalysis), brief therapy is solution-focused: it aims to solve the problem or reach a goal. The focus is on change through action and results. Classical therapy focuses on analysing behaviour, understanding its source or identifying the underlying psychological processes. Yet very often, we do not know why or how we got there!

There are different types of brief therapy, including EMDR, RITMO, hypnosis, NLP, EFT, etc.

Unlike classical therapy, brief therapies are shorter. Allow a maximum of 6 to 24 months for optimal follow-up in brief therapy, compared with more than 3 years in classical therapy. EMDR or RITMO give favourable results (not predictable) within a few sessions.

WHAT IS IT?

Therapeutic hypnosis: a balance for the brain

The hypnotic state lies between wakefulness and sleep, a moment when our awareness can vary in intensity. It engages the creative and emotional right brain, in balance with the rational left brain. Therapeutic hypnosis deprograms harmful patterns and reprograms positive thoughts to strengthen self-confidence.

RITMO® – Trauma reprogramming: a combined approach

RITMO® is similar to EMDR, which is recommended for treating post-traumatic stress. It combines hypnosis and EMDR to desensitise and reprogram healthy reactions to fears and phobias. Generally a few sessions are enough, but the duration can vary.

JIA® – Augmented Imaginary Play: imagination in the service of change

JIA® boosts children’s imagination through games and creative activities. Imagination is an endless source of creation, suited to many issues. JIA® is an effective therapeutic tool for young children.

NVC® – Nonviolent Communication: clarity and kindness

Nonviolent Communication, developed by Marshall Rosenberg, helps resolve conflicts by understanding everyone’s needs and emotions. It encourages clear and kind communication, reducing tension and the repercussions of conflict.
