Therapeutic Approach
At Lewisia, we value person-centred, evidence-based and sensitive approach to therapy. As psychological disorders and poor mental health in general are becoming increasingly prevalent today, early interventions and treatments are considered crucial for not only alleviating symptoms but for creating wholistic change. Lewisia believes that committed, wholistic and professional care honours clients' best interests and uphold their dignity as they embark on a healing journey. This is reflected in the name 'Lewisia', a type of flower plant that grows and blossoms in rocky grounds and cliffs all year around, even in wild and extreme weather conditions!
At the heart of our treatment approach, there are elements of compassion, professionalism, openness, collaboration and respect. While science and research lay strong foundations for evidence-based psychological care, we believe that therapeutic trust between a practitioner and a client is pertinent in initiating change.
There are myriad of psychological modalities that can be incorporated into each session with clients. These include but are not limited to CBT, ACT, DBT, Interpersonal therapy (IPT), family therapy, play therapy and eating disorder specific modalities (CBT-E).
​
Although psychological diagnoses are helpful in treatment and assessment planning, Lewisia believes that diagnoses are not everything when it comes to a person and of course when it comes to accessing psychological treatments.
