Individual Room based Therapy
|
Clàudia is an eclectic practitioner that tailors her therapeutic delivery to the client`s style and goals. She uses a combination of Evidence-Based and innovative practices that incorporate understanding of neuropsychology and trauma-informed recovery. As well as the traditional CBT and ACT approaches, she is also a qualified EMDR practitioner and her methodology is heavily influenced by Somatic experiencing, Gestalt practices and Polyvagal theory.
Claudia offers individual face-to-face therapy in her Bendigo office or online. However, when clinically appropriate and it supports the therapeutic goals, clinical services can also be delivered in a nature based setting.

Working with youth
|
Guided by the latest research in neuro-science, therapy is strongly evidence-based underpinned. A variety of approaches are used to help explore thoughts, emotions and patterns of behaviour alternative from pure talk therapy, including but not limited to, age-appropriate creative and playful activities or Equine Assisted Psychotherapy sessions.
Adolescents may wish to understand themselves better, process and let go of hurtful experiences and make healthier choices in how they deal with life circumstances. The therapeutic process allows youngsters to develop a sense of strength and self-confidence, boosting their capacity for growth and resiliency.
Clàudia is friendly, approachable and able to engage with young people at their level to help them feel safe and comfortable so they can open up about what is difficult. Her approach is strength and solution focused rather than diagnostic or labelling and is also based on skills building.

Equine Assisted Psychological Therapy
|
Psychotherapy delivered in a naturalised setting, with horses, offers a different way of experiencing and integrating the learning in the session. This method of delivering treatment is still based on Evidence Based Psychological interventions such as CBT, ACT and EMDR.
This type of delivery expands opportunities and can offer further benefits to clients who's symptoms have not been successfully improved in a traditional room based setting. The experiential nature of this service helps build felt sense awareness and internalise the concepts from a different angle. As opposed to room-based therapy, clients learn by doing not only talking and horses participate as assistants, co-facilitators and teachers. Interacting with the horses in a safe, supportive and nurturing environment aids clients to feel and thinking differently about themselves, others and the world and can be more supportive in processing traumatic experiences. Through different exercises and "experiments", clients have the opportunity to see how their inner processes impact them and their relationships in a real life scenario and are also then supported in practicing psychological shifts also in a real life scenario.
There are lots of programs that offer equine experiences. However, the intervention that Right Brain Psychology delivers is based on Evidence Based psychological interventions and informed by the latest neuroscience and trauma-informed practices. During Equine Assisted Psychological Therapy sessions, there is no teaching or training of the horses, no riding, and it is not about helping horses overcome any issues.
Please note, suitability and appropriateness is considered as part of the assessment and recommendations process for each client.
