Welcome to the Collaborative Connections Counselling Library


This page is a growing collection of articles, texts, and resources that reflect the therapeutic approaches we use in practice. Many of the documents are grounded in academic research and clinical evidence, highlighting the effectiveness of the methods we offer.

Eye movement therapies—originally developed to support trauma recovery—have since proven beneficial for a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias.

Integrative therapy recognises that every individual is unique, and therefore, effective counselling must be flexible and responsive. There is no one-size-fits-all model. Similarly, Impact Therapy blends techniques from various modalities, offering a creative, action-oriented approach that is both engaging and effective.

We invite you to explore and learn more about the foundations of the work we do.
