Nitai’s therapeutic modalities are primarily Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, individuals and families, EMDR, Parts Work, Circle of Security Parenting, somatic and sensorimotor psychotherapy, attachment science, polyvagal theory and neuroscience. Nitai is also trained in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and will utilise those as appropriate.
He takes a holistic (biological, psychological, social, cultural and spiritual) outlook to assessment. His main goal as a therapist is to support people towards finding safety, meaning and understanding; thereby gradually developing a closer and more safe & secure relationship with all parts of themselves and other significant people in their life.
Nitai’s approach is evidence-based, trauma informed, attachment oriented and person-centred. Nitai follows the lead of his clients and is also happy to take a hands-on approach, when it is in the best interest of his clients.
