Outline of Treatment approach
A variety of techniques within a cognitive-behavioural framework are used to treat anxiety and depression. In addition, visualisation and relaxation techniques (such as hypnotherapy) are used where appropriate.

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) are taught to clients to reduce levels of anxiety and/or pain. EFT involves tapping on meridian points on the face and upper body.
