WHAT CLIENTS CAN EXPECT

To ensure you receive the best care, Insight Psychology Group endeavours to have one of our Clinical Psychologists answer all enquiries. We will answer any question you may have and may ask a few questions about your difficulties. This will help us match you to a therapist. If we do not feel we are the best people to help with your particular situation we will try to give you the contact details of a more suitable therapist.

The First Session

It is very normal to feel uncomfortable about talking to a new person about personal things. At Insight Psychology Group we take a relaxed and supportive approach to put people at ease.
In the first session, your therapist will conduct a thorough assessment of your current life situation, difficulties and any related factors and history. This is important to enable us to help you in the most effective and efficient way. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have.

Length of Therapy

Although most people feel the benefits of treatment after a few sessions, the number of sessions required depends on several factors. Typically, people require between 5 and 15 sessions.

After assessment we will be able to advise you as to the number and frequency of sessions we recommend. Our treatment plans are flexible to fit in with your schedule and financial situation. To help you get the most out of your appointments, we will periodically review the progress of your therapy, with reference to your goals.
In general, the frequency of sessions normally decreases over the course of treatment.

TYPES OF TREATMENT

At Insight Psychology Group we use a variety of evidence-based therapies matched to your individual needs or preferences. These include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal therapy, Schema Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness Techniques.

Our therapies are:

Active and Practical

We do more than just listen to your difficulties. Together with your therapist you will come to an understanding of your issues, what has caused them, and what is maintaining them. We will work on practical strategies and skills so you can overcome your difficulties, manage any recurrence and enhance your life.

Brief and Effective

Treatment normally requires only 5 to 15 sessions, depending upon the complexity, nature and duration of your difficulties. We will often recommend exercises or provide reading material for you between sessions that will maximise your progress. All our treatments are evidence-based which means that they have been scientifically tested and found to be effective in treating a variety of difficulties.

If you are in crisis please call Lifeline on 131 114 or your local Hospital.
