What is Integrative Psychotherapy?

Integrative psychotherapy is an approach that draws on a range of evidence-informed therapeutic models to support people in exploring their experiences, concerns, and wellbeing. Rather than relying on a single framework, integrative practice combines different perspectives so that the work can be tailored to each person’s needs, preferences, and circumstances.

In this approach, we look at the many factors that shape your inner and outer world — including relationships, personal history, identity, environment, stress responses, and the ways you make sense of your experiences. Integrative psychotherapy considers emotional, cognitive, relational, and somatic aspects of your wellbeing and explores how these different layers interact.

Sessions typically focus on your current experiences and what feels most important for you to reflect on. Together, we explore themes, patterns, and influences that may be contributing to what you are facing in your life. The pace, focus, and direction of therapy are guided collaboratively, respecting your goals and comfort.

Integrative psychotherapy does not offer diagnoses or medical advice, and it does not replace specialised mental health treatment when that is needed. When appropriate, it may involve coordination with other health or support professionals to ensure your care is aligned and comprehensive.

At its core, integrative psychotherapy is a flexible, relational approach that centres a safe, respectful therapeutic environment. It supports the development of self-understanding and reflection within a professional and ethical framework.
