Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is based on the cognitive model, which places thoughts, emotions, and behavior at the center of a person’s interaction. How we perceive a situation or circumstance influences our emotional state. While the event may be the same, different people can have different attitudes towards it.
The goal of CBT is to help individuals pay attention to their negative thoughts and dysfunctional beliefs, track their emotions, and analyze their behavioral strategies that may lead to depression, anxiety, phobias, and other mental health problems, and restructure them. CBT teaches clients to be their own therapist.
CBT is an effective method for treating a wide range of mental disorders, including depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, phobias, eating disorders, and addictions. Its advantages include specific problem-solving, focus on the present, short-term therapy, and cost-effectiveness.

Integrative approach
The integrative approach involves a productive, solution-focused strategy for helping individuals by using techniques and tools from different psychological disciplines, based on the biopsychosocial model and the idea of systems thinking.
In my work I use the concept of bodymind to refer to the inseparable connection between the body and mind in combination with modern knowledge of brain functioning, neurobiology, and epigenetics.

Аcceptance And Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people to consciously accept their thoughts and emotions, including negative ones, and focus on their values and behavior in accordance with them. ACT is based on the idea that struggling with negative thoughts and emotions can increase their intensity and frequency, as well as make it difficult to make constructive decisions and achieve personal goals. Instead of fighting unpleasant thoughts and emotional states, ACT develops mindfulness and psychological flexibility in clients, which includes working with acceptance, cognitive distortions, values and behavioral choice, and developing the skill of being in the moment in the position of an observer without judgment or attempt to change their thoughts and emotions. ACT can help people in different conditions, including chronic pain, depression, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, phobias, eating disorders, and addictions.
