    Psychotherapy Perth

    Have you been suffering from anxiety, depression, PTSD, or other mental health issues? Are you ready to speak to a therapist who could help you get to the root of these problems? At the Energetics Institute, our mental health professionals offer comprehensive psychotherapy services to help those seeking a deeper understanding of their emotions.

    Our certified psychotherapists build professional and confidential relationships with each client, creating a non-judgmental and empathetic environment. Psychotherapy allows you to develop more self-awareness and gain a new perspective on your life experiences, relationships, and personal issues.

    At the Energetics Institute, our skilled counsellors use a specialised form of psychotherapy called Somatic Psychotherapy (also known as Body Psychotherapy). This type of psychodynamic therapy uniquely bridges the connection between the mind, body and emotions, facilitating deeper healing.

    Psychotherapy Services in Perth

    At our family-owned practice, we begin with counselling for all clients. We then create a safe, customised psychotherapy plan for you that corresponds to your needs and emotional threshold. Your psychotherapist will work closely with you during each session. Your therapy experience is personal and entirely tailored to your needs.

    Each psychotherapy session typically lasts 55 minutes and sessions are normally scheduled on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Although not compulsory, it is generally recommended to commit to 5 or 6 sessions of psychotherapy to maximize the benefits of the therapeutic process. This initial series of sessions allows both you and your therapist to establish a strong rapport, explore your concerns in depth, and begin working through challenges in a meaningful way. While some individuals may see progress sooner, this commitment provides the time necessary to gain insights, develop coping strategies, and foster personal growth. Ultimately, each person’s journey is unique, and ongoing dialogue with your therapist will help determine the best course of action for your specific needs.

    Our Somatic Psychotherapy is a trauma-informed BodyMind approach, that will enable you to safely express your energies and emotions in productive ways. We can use this therapy method to establish the places in your body where stress resides.

    Talk therapy is a part of almost all counselling services. Body Psychotherapy offers clients an emotional release that most people cannot reach through talk therapy alone. Our experienced psychotherapists will build a professional relationship with you and provide a safe space to experience and release these emotions. We’ll walk with you through your sessions and help you feel supported through the entire process.

    By creating a deeper connection between your body, mind, and emotional expression, you’ll gain clarity around your problems and all aspects of your life. At the Energetics Institute, we believe longer-term solutions can come from Body Psychotherapy, in conjunction with traditional counselling.

    Benefits of Effective Psychotherapy 

    At the Energetics Institute, we want to help you through any difficulties in your life with caring, hopeful, and insightful techniques. With psychotherapy, you’ll be able to express your emotions in a non-judgmental environment and build habits that will change your life.

    We can use psychotherapy to change habits, overcome the symptoms of trauma and PTSD, or treat phobias. Most people can benefit from psychotherapy in some way.

    Other experiences that we can treat with psychotherapy include:

    •    Constant anxiety
    •    Problems with your attention span
    •    Feelings of hopelessness or loneliness
    •    Trauma and PTSD
    •    Early life abuse
    •    Negative relationships with addictions
    •    Eating disorders
    •    Depression
    •    Self esteem issues
    •    Family counselling and relationship issues between family members

    Psychotherapy can effectively treat and heal the symptoms associated with depression, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health issues. We do not recommend Body Psychotherapy to all clients – particularly those currently suffering from drug addiction, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder. In some, expressing emotions through psychotherapy can cause psychosis, trauma re-enactment, or unsafe feelings. We would recommend that you find a psychologist who can provide some kind of talk therapy to treat those mental health conditions instead.
