Psychology seeks to help people with a range of personal difficulties. Often, these problems cause distress or difficulty in how someone is feeling, thinking, behaving or learning. Our psychologists are trained to apply their knowledge in practical ways to help people understand their difficulties and explore ways of making positive changes.
Behavioral Medicine is an interdisciplinary field combing both medicine and psychology and is concerned with the integration of knowledge in the biological, behavioral, psychological, and social sciences relevant to health and illness. Many of the health problems are primarily viewed as behavioral in nature, as opposed to medical. For example, smoking, leading a sedentary lifestyle, and alcohol abuse or other substance abuse are all factors in the leading causes of death or illness in many developed countries.
Hypnosis Therapy is usually considered an aid to psychotherapy because the hypnotic state allows people to explore painful thoughts, feelings, and memories they might have hidden from their conscious minds.

This can result in more effective pain relief which speeds up the recovery process through more natural methods.

Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. While mindfulness is something we all naturally possess, it’s more readily available to us when we practice on a daily basis. Mindfulness meditation asks us to suspend judgment and unleash our natural curiosity about the workings of the mind, approaching our experience with warmth and kindness, to ourselves and others.
Whenever you bring awareness to what you’re directly experiencing via your senses, or to your state of mind via your thoughts and emotions, you’re being mindful. And there’s growing research showing that when you train your brain to be mindful, you’re actually remodeling the physical structure of your brain.
Our Mindfulness Programs offer tools to explore the human condition in all its variety. You can also find a program that is targeted toward a particular problem, such as depression or addiction, or need, such as leadership or childbirth.
