Person-centred therapy, also known as client-centred therapy, is a humanistic approach to psychotherapy developed by Carl Rogers in the 1940s. At its core, this therapy emphasizes the belief that individuals have an innate capacity for growth and self-healing. The role of the therapist is to provide a safe, empathetic, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Unlike directive therapies, person-centred therapy prioritizes the client’s autonomy, trusting in their ability to uncover their own solutions and insights.

Psychodynamic therapy is a therapeutic approach rooted in the belief that our unconscious mind, early life experiences, and interpersonal relationships shape our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Developed from the principles of psychoanalysis, this therapy focuses on exploring these underlying influences to help individuals gain insight and resolve emotional difficulties. 

Existential therapy is one of Heathwell’s core approaches, offering a philosophical and reflective way of engaging with life’s most profound questions. Rather than concentrating solely on symptoms or specific problems, existential therapy delves into the deeper questions of life: Who am I? What is my purpose? How can I live authentically?
