Welcome to NeuroAffective-CBT®

NeuroAffective-CBT® is the home of evidence-based psychotherapy. Where evidence meets compassion and empathy.. and where real, lasting change begins..

      Psychotherapy is an encounter between two emotional beings.

Understanding the Landscape

To see where NeuroAffective-CBT® fits, it helps to step back and take a bird’s-eye view of the psychotherapy landscape. Imagine three overlapping circles, each representing one of the field’s major traditions..

  • Humanistic, existential, and person-centred therapies focusing on meaning, authenticity, and values.

  • Psychoanalytic and psychodynamic therapies exploring childhood, unconscious processes, and the past.

  • Cognitive and behavioural therapies (aka CBT and its many branches)  targeting thoughts, emotions, and actions in the present.

Where these circles intersect lies the heart of modern psychotherapy. After all, one cannot change thoughts and behaviours without understanding a person’s history, values, and aspirations. Likewise, exploring existence without acknowledging childhood experiences leaves an incomplete picture. Even psychoanalysis, with its deep focus on the past, ultimately seeks to shape behaviour and choices in the future.

The Beauty of Integration

If this sounds intricate, it’s because the field of psychotherapy is wonderfully complex. Different schools take different routes, some require years of exploration, others work in weeks or months, yet all share the same goal: helping people feel better and live more fully.

 
NeuroAffective-CBT® (NA-CBT®) belongs to the broad family of cognitive-behavioural therapies known for their structured frameworks, clear boundaries, and strong evidence base. What makes it unique is its integration: weaving scientific precision together with the emotional and relational depth of humanistic and psychodynamic work, all within the practical, outcome-focused methods of traditional behaviourism.

Philosophy meets science. The body meets the mind..
