In psychological practice, we use:
- Solution Focused Brief Therapy (BSFT)- as its name indicates the BSFT therapy focuses on tasks, i.e. on solving the current difficulties faced by a person.
In contrast to traditional psychotherapeutic methods, I do not deal with the analysis of the past, traumatic events, family relationships.
Its object of interest is the present and the future, but mainly focusing on client’s resources. It helps to find ways to cope with a difficult situation.
It does not focus on the problem itself or the analysis of the personality structure.
The client sets goals for realization that will help them solve the difficulties.
This way of conducting therapy allows for effective and short-term actions.
The length of meetings is dependent on the needs of the client, usually lasts from several meetings to 1 year. At the same time, it depends on the individual needs and capabilities of the client.
- Biofeedback Therapy – the aim of the biofeedback therapy is to provide a feedback about changes in physiological state.
The person using special sensors is connected to the apparatus, thanks to which on the computer monitor they can see the record of their physiological parameters.
This record is simple and clear, it allows the person to find out if it is optimal. Therapy consists on conscious control of the recording by using images and animations that are triggered by means of an appropriate physiological parameter record.
In this method, the system of rewards is used – the reward are obtained points, the activated animation or music, e.g. by brain waves record consciously activated by the client. An abnormal record causes the above animation to stop, thanks to which the person receives information that they should deliberately make again a conscious change in the physiological parameter record.
This method is so simple and clear, that it can be used in children above 6-7 years of age, persons disturbed, however, the condition of using the method is the ability to understand physiological records.
This method is safe and does not cause any side effects and can be associated with pharmacological treatment. Initially, however, it is possible for some people to feel tired.
We use sensors: EEG, HR/BVP, SC, TEMP, RESP, EMG, HEG (by Thought Technology).
- Relaxing techniques including, among others: Autogenic Schulz training, visualization, Progressive Jacobson’s Training.
- Mindfulness training – conscious control of thought processes.
