Evidence-based Therapy
Aim of Psychological Treatment using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Specific training and experience enable Psychologist Sandy Ogier to offer effective outpatient, individualised, psychological care. A number of mental health disorders can be treated to improve functioning in adults and youth.
A powerful new psychotherapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is based on cutting-edge research into how the human mind works (3rd wave CBT). Including component of Mindfulness, it has had clinically proven success in a wide range of psychological problems such as: Anxiety, trauma, self/shame, depression, stress, bullying, emotions/anger/grief, sleep, and suicidal thoughts.
The aim is help create a rich, full and meaningful life (perspectives and values) whilst teaching/ practicing a set of practical skills (committed actions) to handle difficult situations.
At Psych-ed Psychology, this involves offering a 100% customised treatment plan, combining specific self-exploration and practical techniques, with the result of feeling less stuck and being able to move forward in life using inner strengths. In this discovery, we promise to be flexible and present with each step on your journey.
