Therapeutic approach

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-Based Therapy develops present-moment awareness and a less automatic relationship with thoughts, emotions and physical sensations.

How it works

The aim is not to force relaxation or remove thoughts. It is to notice experience more clearly, respond with greater choice and reduce being pulled into habitual reactions.

What it may involve

  • breath, sound or sensory awareness
  • noticing thoughts as mental events
  • grounding and paced attention
  • bringing mindful awareness into daily activities

It may be considered for

  • stress and rumination
  • anxiety and emotional reactivity
  • chronic illness and pain-related stress
  • difficulty slowing down or noticing needs

How it may be used at Kaeva

Mindfulness practices are adapted to safety, preference and readiness. For some trauma experiences, external grounding or movement may be more appropriate than prolonged inward attention.

Finding the right fit matters

No single approach is right for every person or concern. Your counsellor will consider safety, readiness, preferences, goals and whether the approach fits their training and scope.
