In the fight against trauma and anxiety.
Hard times
In early 2020, with the emergence of the new coronavirus mutation, many people came to struggle with hitherto unknown difficult feelings, including a sense of insecurity, anxiety, fear - which relatively often resulted in the development of mental disorders. Next tragic news came from Ukraine. When the war broke out in Ukraine, it resulted in a significant increase in emotional problems, the severity of anxiety, and sometimes the occurrence of secondary trauma. Unfortunately, the number of clients who had already reported to therapy offices due to past traumas and chronic stress did not decrease.
Effectiveness
The Time Perspective Therapy is one of the most effective methods of treating traumas, anxiety disorders and bond disorders, and also supports people suffering from mourning and separation from loved ones. It enables changing the way of thinking about our story and so helps to shape a better future and improve the quality of life. Especially now, when many clients are facing the challenge of finding oneself in a new reality, it can be a unique and valuable method for psychologists, crisis interveners and psychotherapists.
