Integrative Psychotherapy for Personal Growth: Transform Your Mind

Integrative Psychotherapy - Personal Journey

Transformative Integrative Psychotherapy

Integrative Psychotherapy is a holistic approach that tailors treatment to your needs. The human mind is complex. It deserves models of mind that are adequately complex themselves. Patients shouldn’t adapt to a therapy model: therapy should adapt to the patient.

Expert, Compassionate Mental Health Support

Integrative Psychotherapy - Personal Sanctuary

Counselling

Counselling helps with simple problems. These may be personal and emotional, vocational or career-related. Counselling is a way to work through these problems with a skilled-listener and helper.

Integrative Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy treats serious mental suffering, including depression and anxiety. Psychotherapy is more suitable for more complex problems and is deeper than counselling.

Couples/Relationship Counselling

We often struggle in relationships. Relationship counselling is a way to work through these problems with the support of a professional helper.

Coaching

Coaching is about self-optimisation. It’s not about relieving mental suffering. Coaching aims for human flourishing.

Transform Your Life: Proven Benefits of Integrative Psychotherapy

Integrative Psychotherapy - Mental Flourishing

Expand your Mind

Take your own mind seriously. It deserves care and nourishment. Become curious about yourself. See your life as a part of a greater reality. Let’s be curious about your life together. Become an intrepid explorer of your own inner world.

Deepen your Feelings

Mental flourishing is not about feeling less, it is about developing the capacity to feel more. Healing begins when get in touch with our deepest feelings, thereby becoming a fuller, more integrated, versions of ourselves.

Listen to your Body

People tend to neglect their bodies either by expecting to little from it (e.g. a lack of meaningful physical activity), or by expecting too much from it (e.g. over-exercise, overwork, inadequate sleep, substance abuse, overeating, etc.). Learn to appreciate the body as something deserving your care and esteem.

Strengthen Your Relationships

The health of our relationships is a sign of the health of your internal world. This is because our internal world is largely shaped and developed from outside to inside: our early relationships serve as templates for later relationships with friends, lovers, colleagues and our own children. Our relationships also serve as templates for our relationships with ourselves. Psychotherapy can be understood as offering a cure through relationship.

How to Connect with Me

In-person Integrative Psychotherapy

If you live in Provence, France and are looking for an English-speaking therapist to meet with in person, I have consulting rooms in Aix-en-Provence (Bouches du Rhône) and La Cadière d’Azur (Var). Multicultural couples and families may also benefit from my breadth of cultural experience as I have now called three different continents my home. (I am a native English-speaker and I have professional level language ability in French.)

Online Integrative Psychotherapy

I have extensive experience offering therapy online to patients internationally (Australia, USA, UK, France, Germany, Iceland. . . .) by means of video-conferencing software. I value the opportunity that online therapy provides to connect with patients from all over the world. It also provides advantages for people living in regional or remote areas, or for those people who prefer the convenience and sense of security that engaging with therapy from the comfort of their own home provides.

About Joshua Comyn, PhD

Integrative Psychotherapy - Companion

Joshua Comyn, PhD

In addition to being a practitioner of psychotherapy in private practice, Joshua Comyn has also worked as a lecturer in counselling and psychotherapy where he has taught and trained students to become psychotherapists and counsellors.

Prior to studying and working in psychotherapy, Joshua’s background was in literature, philosophy and theatre and he has worked as an academic at several universities in Australia. This experience gives him a broad view of how the mind works and influences how he understands the theory and practice of psychotherapy. Literature provides a window into other minds, and philosophy is a powerful way to organise one’s own mind. Theatre has taught him how to connect with others and himself and how to make the body a vehicle for the mind’s expression.
