Transform with Personal Coaching
Its hard to change on your own.
“…the past affects people – some let it decide who they are, while others make it part of what they will do”
Eric Berne
At The Change Institute, we believe that coaching and therapy are the quickest ways to support long-lasting personal growth and development.
Our personal belief system (or “internal theatre”) is the springboard for how we relate to and interact in the world. Long-forgotten experiences and events from our past can affect us in the present, seeping into our lives in unexpected ways, often many years after the experience occurred. These experiences and their effects can cause problems in our relationships, personal lives, and work.
This is an invitation to have a sounding board, an independent third party to talk through issues at work and in life. We all need someone who is entirely devoted to listening, responding, and supporting us through challenges.
Personal Coaching Methods
Transactional Analysis – Cognitive/Classical Therapy Approach. A brilliant road map of human behaviour that helps people understand how they arrived in their current state and provides ways to change it. TA is a psycho-educational approach to therapy that challenges our frame of reference and story of how our lives are evolving.
Transactional Analysis – Re-decision Therapy. Offered exclusively through Anne of Therapy for People, this process involves helping individuals make new decisions about their essential selves, rather than relying on the archaic decisions they made as children in response to parental messages. Re-decision Therapy uses the empty chair technique of Gestalt Psychotherapy to help the individual have a real, felt sense of the early decisions that were necessary for survival, and also experience how these are now limiting. This process can help change entrenched beliefs and open new doorways for growth and development.
Hypnotherapy. Offered exclusively through Meghan of Inner Mind Therapy. Our conscious mind is busy being loud throughout our day. This is the part of us that ‘thinks’. Yet there is also a silent partner within that is the true conductor of our experience. Our unconscious holds our beliefs, our traumas, and a whole ocean of undiscovered power. Hypnotherapy allows you to dive deep into your unconscious and harness this power towards personal change. This hidden self has the incredible power to support change in your life.
Advanced Integrative Therapy. Offered with Meghan, Anne, and Michele, Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) is an Energy Psychology-based model that supports personal change. AIT is a method that blends analytic psychotherapy with the power of energy psychology, under the basic premise that most present-day psychological issues originated in one or more early negative experiences. Using the ancient energetic system of the Chakra System, and incorporating advanced Psychoanalytic models, AIT blends the esoteric with the modern to create a comprehensive method for clearing the past that holds us back from our desired present.
Homeopathy. Offered exclusively through Michele Brookhaus of Brookhaus Essentials. Homeopathy is an ancient form of natural healing that uses the body’s own intelligence to heal itself. Even surgeons understand that if they cut a patient, the body will heal itself! Homeopathy uses the energetic imprint of natural substances to elicit the body’s own response. The idea is like-cures-like – very similar to the idea of a vaccine. However, Homeopathy does this using the Energetics of plants, animals, minerals and more. Discover new ways to balance your system or support healing from the physical ailments of the body.
Energy Psychology. A theory that identifies psychological concerns as disturbed bio-energetic patterns within the mind-body system, affecting a person’s neurobiological, emotional, and behavioural systems. When traumatic events are stuck in the mind-body system, they can negatively influence a person’s outlook, experiences, emotional regulation, and ability to relate to others.
