Holistic Care utilising Evidence-Based Therapies
Holistic psychological therapy is an approach that recognises the interconnectedness of an individual's mind, body, and spirit in their overall well-being. Holistic therapists aim to promote healing and growth by incorporating various factors such as lifestyle, relationships, environment, and personal beliefs. Ravi recognises that humans are complex and multifaceted beings, and therapy with her aims to not only overcome obstacles to psychological well-being, but also to facilitate personal growth, joy and overall wellness.
Ravi utilises therapeutic approaches that have been proven to be effective through research. This includes Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Positive Psychology.
