OTHER THERAPIES:

HUMANISTIC THERAPY
Counselling clients with a humanistic approach provides them with an opportunity to explore creativity, personal growth and self-development, as well as acknowledging a variety of choices. The foundations of the humanistic approach provide the client with a deeper understanding of who they are, what they feel and the opportunity to explore the possibility of creating personal choices. It encourages self-awareness and self-realisation.

PERSON-CENTRED THERAPY
Person-Centered therapy uses a non-authoritative approach that allows clients to take more of a lead in discussions so that, in the process, they will discover their own solutions. The therapist acts as a compassionate facilitator, listening without judgment and acknowledging the client’s experience without moving the conversation in another direction. The therapist is there to encourage and support the client and to guide the therapeutic process without interrupting or interfering with the client’s process of self-discovery. Anyone who would be better off gaining more self-confidence, a stronger sense of identity, and the ability to build healthy interpersonal relationships and to trust his or her own decisions could benefit from person-Centered therapy. This approach, alone or in combination with other types of therapy, can also be helpful for those who suffer from grief, depression, anxiety, stress, abuse, or other mental health conditions. Person-Centered therapists work with both individuals and groups. Since the client must do a lot of the work in person-Centered therapy, those who are more motivated are likely to be more successful.

EXISTENTIAL THERAPY
Existential therapy focuses on free will, self-determination, and the search for meaning—often centred on you rather than on the symptom. The approach emphasizes your capacity to make rational choices and to develop to your maximum potential. The Existential approach stresses that: All people have the capacity for self-awareness. Each person has a unique identity that can be known only through relationships with others. People must continually re-create themselves because life’s meaning constantly changes. Anxiety is part of the human condition.

TRANSACTIONAL ANALYSIS (TA)
Based around a client’s self-development and personal growth, transactional analysis provides a connection between a client’s past and how this influence’s present decisions and choices. Transactional Analysis also acknowledges the three ego states that run through every relationship a person has with others. These are the Parent, Adult and Child ego states. The client is encouraged to look back over past decisions they have made, and to analyse and understand the consequences and subsequent direction. This form of humanistic approach to counselling also helps clients become more in tuned with their thinking and acting skills.

EXPRESSIVE ARTS THERAPY
Expressive arts therapy combines psychology and the creative process to promote emotional growth and healing. This multi-arts, or intermodal, approach to psychotherapy and counselling uses our inborn desire to create—be it music, theatre, poetry, dance, or other artistic form as a therapeutic tool to help initiate change. The difference between expressive arts therapy and art therapy is that expressive arts therapy draws from a variety of art forms, while art therapy tends to be based on one particular art form. Expressive arts therapy is used with children and adults, as individuals or in groups, to nurture deep personal growth and transformation. For instance, expressive arts therapy for clients with behavioural issues might include music, movement, or painting. The therapist observes the clients processes, behaviour, and impulses, and then explores the experience. Journaling, storytelling, reading literature and poetry, and making life maps, videos, and memory books are all forms of expressive art therapy that can help clients review and make meaning of their lives, and to tell their life story, as well as help them engage with family and other significant people in their lives.
