Assertiveness Training

Assertiveness training suggests that there are three ways that a person can handle a situation; they can be passive, aggressive or assertive. Most people understand what it means to react passively or aggressively, but often mistake assertiveness with aggression. Assertive people however are not aggressive, they have the ability to ask for what they want, they are able to freely express their feelings, thoughts and desires, and they have control over their anger by not repressing their feelings but by expressing them in a controlled manner. A Psychologist uses assertiveness training to teach individuals techniques to become a more assertive person.

Conflict Resolution and Mediation

Conflict resolution is used by a Psychologist to ease or remove sources of conflict that lead to frustration and loss of efficiency. Counselling may prove to be helpful as it allows the individual to vent frustrations to an impassive listener; it also can help as the counsellor can offer solutions to help eliminate the source of disagreement.

Crisis Counselling

At New View Psychology we understand that at times individuals require urgent assistance. Simply inform our friendly receptionist if the matter is urgent and we will do our best to accommodate your request. If you are unable to be seen by a Psychologist straight away there are emergency help lines listed in our links page, which may get you through the initial critical moment.

Family of origin issues

Family of origin refers to the important custodian and siblings that a person grows up with. This usually specifies a person’s biological or adoptive family. Our early experiences direct our understanding of the world, ourselves and how we see other people. This has an influence on how we cope with and function in our daily lives. If a person has a family of origin issue it can affect everyday functioning.

Anger management

Anger management refers to a system of therapeutic techniques used by a Psychologist to help a person with uncontrollable anger to control or reduce the triggers, degrees, and effects of an angered emotional state.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
