Main Therapeutic Approaches
Marnie’s initial training in psychology focused on a cognitive-behavioural approach to therapy. However, she has undergone a further two years of training in clinical hypnotherapy and has completed intensive training in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Schema Therapy, Solution-Focussed Therapy and Mindfulness-based CBT. Marnie’s approach in therapy is to focus on clients’ strengths rather than just the “problems”, and to help clients optimise their quality of life.
