Therapies Offered

At Ramsay Clinic Thirroul, we offer a comprehensive range of therapies designed to empower you on your journey towards healing and growth.

Trauma-Informed Approach

Our trauma-informed therapies are specifically designed to address the challenges faced by individuals who have experienced traumatic stressors. These programs focus on:

• Regulation Skills: We equip you with skills to calm and regulate an activated nervous system, a common response to trauma.
• Holistic Support: We take a holistic approach, addressing the emotional, physical, behavioural, and cognitive aspects of your experience.

Therapies Offered at Ramsay Clinic Thirroul

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Learn to identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress. CBT equips you with practical skills to manage stress, improve communication, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): This therapy empowers you to identify your core values and live a meaningful life, even in the face of difficulties. ACT teaches mindfulness and acceptance skills to manage challenging thoughts and emotions.
• Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): Specifically designed for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), CPT helps patients process and challenge unhelpful beliefs related to their trauma, fostering emotional healing.
• Schema Therapy: This integrative approach combines elements from various therapies to help you recognise and address underlying patterns of thought and behaviour impacting your well-being and relationships. Schema therapy focuses on identifying early experiences that shaped your "schemas," and developing healthier coping mechanisms to fulfill your emotional needs.
• Art Therapy: For those who find verbal expression difficult, art therapy provides a safe space for self-discovery and emotional exploration through creative mediums like painting, drawing, and clay work. No prior artistic experience is necessary!
• Mindfulness: Cultivate a sense of present moment awareness and acceptance through mindfulness practices. Learn to observe your thoughts and feelings without judgment, fostering inner peace and emotional regulation. Mindfulness can be integrated into daily activities like eating, walking, listening to music, nature sounds etc. It also can be a deliberate practice, for example mindfully participating in a ‘sound bath’ of chimes, gongs and/or meditation sound bowls.
• Yoga: More than just physical postures, yoga offers a holistic approach to well-being. It incorporates physical poses, breathing exercises, and meditation to promote stress reduction, emotional balance, and physical fitness. Yoga can be adapted to various abilities and practiced by individuals of all ages.
• Exercise, Movement & Aquatic Therapy: Physical activity plays a crucial role in mental health. Our programs incorporate exercise, movement, and even aquatic therapy in the pool, to strengthen your body, improve mood, and enhance your overall health.
• Animal Assisted Therapy: The human-animal bond can be incredibly powerful. Animal assisted therapy provides opportunities for guided interaction with trained animals, offering comfort, emotional support, and stress reduction.
