Psychotherapy is usually an extended treatment (months to years) in which a relationship is built up between the therapist and the client. The relationship is then used to explore aspects of the person's past in great depth and to show how these have led to the current depression or distress. Understanding this link between past and present - insight - is thought to resolve the depression or emotional distress and make the person less vulnerable to becoming depressed or distressed again. Focused Psychotherapy is also offered at TASSC provides brief intervention (6-12 sessions) using the same framework of understanding how the person’s past has contributed to current problems causing emotional distress. This understanding then assists in resolving current distress and prevention of relapse. Psychotherapists work with clients seeking personal growth and clients experiencing mental illness. All TASSC Psychotherapists are experienced in working with trauma.
