Our Therapeutic Approaches

Chrysalis psychologists are trained and experienced with a variety of evidence-based psychological techniques and therapeutic approaches. Our clinicians select and adapt these approaches based on each client’s unique needs, ensuring a personalised and effective treatment plan that promotes healing and growth.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps you identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to anxiety, depression, and other concerns. It is one of the most researched and effective forms of psychological therapy, providing practical tools you can use in everyday life.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy

A structured therapy that helps individuals process and recover from past traumatic experiences and/or prepare for current or future, traumatic experiences by using eye movements and/or other forms of bilateral stimulation.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

DBT combines cognitive-behavioural techniques with mindfulness to help people manage intense emotions, tolerate distress, improve relationships, and build emotional resilience. It is particularly helpful for people who experience emotions very strongly.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy

An evidence-based approach that helps people explore and understand the different 'parts' of themselves. By fostering self-awareness and healing, IFS supports individuals to reduce inner conflict and improve emotional wellbeing.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-based approaches teach you to focus on the present moment with curiosity and without judgment. These techniques help reduce stress, manage anxiety and depression, and improve overall emotional balance.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than struggling against them, while committing to actions that align with your values. This approach supports you to build a rich and meaningful life, even in the presence of psychological discomfort..

Schema Therapy

Schema Therapy is an integrative approach that helps you identify and transform deeply ingrained patterns (schemas) that influence how you see yourself, others, and the world. These patterns often develop in childhood when core emotional needs were not fully met. Schema Therapy combines cognitive, emotional, and behavioural techniques to help you heal past wounds, meet your needs in healthier ways, and create lasting change in your relationships and wellbeing.

Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)

CFT helps you develop self-compassion and kindness towards yourself, particularly if you struggle with shame, self-criticism, or harsh inner dialogue. This approach supports emotional healing by teaching you to relate to yourself with the same warmth you would offer a good friend.

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)

IPT focuses on improving your relationships and social connections to reduce emotional distress. This structured approach helps you navigate relationship difficulties, life transitions, grief, and interpersonal conflicts that contribute to depression and anxiety.

Psychosexual Therapy

A specialised form of therapy that addresses sexual concerns and difficulties with sensitivity and expertise. Psychosexual therapy helps individuals and couples navigate challenges related to sexual function, desire, intimacy, and sexual wellbeing.

Local and Telehealth Options

Our flexible options make it easy to access therapy. We offer face-to-face sessions in Battery Point and secure telehealth across Tasmania and Australia.
