Therapeutic approaches

Theoretical basis

Existential-analytical approach
GLE-International (Austria)

A good life does not mean an easy life
How do we deal with the inevitable difficulties we face in our lives?
Do we have the strength to stand up to them? And what's the point?

Key personalities: S. Kierkegaard, M. Heidegger, K. Jaspers,
E. Husserl, J.-P. Sartre, R. May, W. Frankl
Modern representatives: A. Langle, I. Yalom, E. van Dorzen

Emotionally focused therapy
ICEEFT (Canada)

A modern integration method in psychology that focuses on emotions and states, taking into account the need for attachment given the unique experience of the client in the context of close relationships.

Theoretical basis: K. Rogers (humanistic therapy), J. Bowlby (theory of attachment), S. Minukhin (family psychotherapy)
Modern representatives: S. Johnson, L. Greenberg, Z. Simakhodska

Psychotherapy based on attachment
IASA (United Kingdom)

Close relationships are one of the basic human needs. During life, a "working model" of attachment or a strategy of interaction in a relationship is formed.

Why do I react this way and can I learn to build warm close relationships when I have not had such an experience? Can I react differently than usual?

Theoretical basis: J. Bowlby, M. Ainsworth, M. Klein
Modern representatives: L. Petranovska, P. Crittenden
