SYMBOLIC MEANING OF LOGO AND SLOGAN:
LOGO:
The logo symbolizes core components grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as a psychotherapeutic intervention, underpinned by a psycho-educational theoretical model:
The facial representation symbolizes emotional experiences and the dynamical nature of humans’ experiences, interactions with others and their world as well as the dynamical nature of behavioural responses. The hands represent emotional and physical support, safety, healing and self-agency.

SLOGAN:
.
“My A-B-C-Therapy’s” goal is to serve as a safe platform, advocating patient-centred mental health care service delivery as point of departure for facilitating positive patient outcomes, fostering therapeutic growth, personal change and agency.
Through therapy you will be accompanied by your therapist to embark on a therapeutic journey, exploring and enhancing your own personal internal and external therapeutic repertoire, creating a deeper sense of self-awareness in the here-and-now (present moment) and safety of the therapeutic space.
.
A key objective of therapy is not only to instil symptom relief, but to provide building blocks for reflection on lived experiences, emotional experiences and related behavioural responses. The aim is to promote a therapeutic shift from experiencing negative emotions, engaging in related dysfunctional behavioural patterns to a more positive stance (however, it is important to note that we all experience negative emotions at some point in our life’s. It is when the intensity and duration intensify that we experience a greater sense of emotional distress and pain, unable or finding it difficult to fulfil daily activities of living, responsibilities and role expectations. Often leaving us feeling overwhelmed, helpless and hopeless).
.
The therapeutic therapist-patient relationship encompasses a relationship built on mutual trust and respect. This will provide you with the opportunity to explore and analyse past unresolved experiences, providing a framework for experiential learning in the safety of the therapeutic space. Through therapy you will be guided to become your “own vehicle of change”, gaining self-agency and autonomy, creating and fostering a sense of self-direction, meaning, hope and mastery.
.
Advanced psychiatric nursing therapy is grounded in sound scientific, evidence-based theoretical approaches and the appropriate treatment modality will be tailored according to your specific needs after a comprehensive mental health assessment. At times you will also be provided with psycho-educational materials to assist you on your road to recovery. You will also benefit from learning different coping skills. The safety of the therapeutic space during therapy sessions will give you the opportunity to express vulnerabilities, emotional experiences as well as provide a safe platform to explore related behavioural responses. This will also provide you with the opportunity to explore possible alternative emotional and behavioural responses through experiential learning.
.
Ultimately, the goal of your psychiatric nursing therapist is to accompany you on your therapeutic journey of recovery, therapeutic growth and personal change. The aim of therapy is thus to empower patients
– that is, you –
to be able to cope effectively with mental illness, emotional distress and related behavioural responses, personal challenges, existential crises, trauma and losses. Fostering hope, agency and mental wellbeing.
