Psychotherapy and consultations are provided in Malta. Internet counseling is also available. The psychologist is chartered with the British Psychological Society, registered with the Netherlands Institute of Psychologists, and is an affiliate of the American Psychological Association. She works accordingly to the ethical standards of the code of conduct set by the profession and has her own professional supervision.
The psychologist uses an eclectic approach, combining several therapeutic techniques in order to create the optimal approach for the given individual. The therapy is based on the principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy. When working with children, play therapy and Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) are utilized.
Internet counselling consists of the use of emails where the client first explains to the therapist his/her problems, concerns, and his/her situation and then receives a 1-page or 2- page reply. Internet counselling has become widespread as a therapy mode for people who are not able to seek counselling on face-to-face basis due to various obstacles, such as lack of time or physical disabilities.
