APPROACH

Rewiring Cognitions and Emotions

“What is it? Rewiring is an individual or group approach to psychological therapy based on a combination model of CBT, psychotherapy and mastery learning. It is chiefly concerned with the relationship between optimism, learning, successful patterns of behaviour, and the subjective experiences and patterns of thought underlying them. This therapy educates people in self-awareness, healthy thinking, and effective communication, and helps them to change patterns of mental and emotional behaviour in a very short time-span. 

Rewiring works on the neuroplasticity of the brain. It has been shown to be effective with adolescents and adults. The object of the training is to re-educate the brain and encourage a change in mental state, thus challenging the brain to function more effectively. The scripts that are programmed into our brains throughout life can be changed through this process, and organized into new scripts for us to achieve specific goals in life and raise the level of neurotransmitters in our brains”. –

Functional Therapy. Functional Therapy is aimed at effecting understanding and insight into human behaviour. In the first place clients are guided to understand themselves better. Understanding alone provides the possibility of healing. Clients have to proceed to effective action if they are to expect healing. When Functional Therapy is fully utilized (understanding that finds expression in action), it can lead to a life that is blessed with rich and fulfilled relationships with God, self and neighbour:

Functional Therapy (FT) involves a comprehensive approach to human functioning based on the integration of theology and social sciences. 

FT is a powerful treatment, because it combines theological, scientific, and behavioural aspects into one comprehensive approach: understanding and overcoming common psychosocial problems.
FT was developed through extensive scientific evaluation.
FT aims to help the client move from his/her defined emotional andbehavioural problems, towards goals of how he/she would like to feeland behave.
FT is a goal-directed, systematic, problem-solving approach to emotional and behavioural problems.

FT focuses on how problems are being maintained as well as on  searching for the root cause(s) of the problem.
