Psihoterapija in psihološko svetovanje pomagata posamezniku obnoviti polni potencial njegovega bivanja. Skozi psihoterapevtski proces vodimo posameznika, podobno kot na potovanju, po poti raziskovanja samega sebe in svoje življenjske zgodbe.
Psihoterapija je proces v katerem psihoterapevt pomaga posamezniku poiskati in razviti njegove lastne moči, pomaga pri obvladovanju težav, odnosov, strahov in vsakodnevnih izzivov.
Čemu je namenjena psihoterapija?
NAMEN psihoterapije in psihološkega svetovanja je pomoč pri reševanju težav, kot so:
obremenjujoče življenjske situacije (kronične bolezni, smrt ali bolezen bližnjega, ločitev, izguba službe, naravne nesreče itd.);
težavni odnosi med sorodniki ali med prijatelji, v službi, partnerstvu, z otroki itd.;
strahovi (pred stiki z ljudmi, pred odprtimi/zaprtimi prostori, pred avtoritetami, pred vožnjo z letali, dvigali, tuneli itd.);
negotovosti pred pomembnimi odločitvami (usmerjanje lastnega življenja, kariere itd.);
vzgoja otrok, skrb za ostarele starše;
nosečnost, priprava na porod, težave s plodnostjo;
obvladovanje kroničnih bolečin.
Kako poteka psihoterapija?
Individualna psihoterapija
Posamezno srečanje traja 50 min
Partnerska psihoterapija
Pri psihoterapiji in psihološkem svetovanju uporabljamo metode vedenjsko-kognitivne terapije (VKT)
Vedenjsko-kognitivna terapija
Kako razmišljamo o sebi, svetu in drugih ljudeh?
Kako naši odzivi in vedenja vplivajo na občutke ter misli?
VKT raziskuje povezavo med tem, o čemer razmišljamo in kar čutimo. S pomočjo psihoterapije postopoma spreminjamo način razmišljanja (»kognitivni del«) in obnašanja (»vedenjski del«). Spremembe v razmišljanju bodo vplivale na to, kar počnemo in čutimo, spremembe v vedenju pa bodo vplivale na to, o čem razmišljamo in kaj čutimo. Vse te spremembe pa nam pomagajo do zmanjšanja stiske in boljšega počutja.
Ena od ključnih idej VKT je, da naša čustva ne izhajajo neposredno iz dogodkov, temveč iz naših razlag teh dogodkov – iz pomena, ki jim ga pripišemo.
...
Če gre na primer nekdo, ki ga poznamo, mimo po cesti, ne da bi nas pozdravil, si to lahko razlagamo na več načinov:
Lahko si mislimo, da nas noče pozdraviti, ker smo prepričani, da nas tako ali tako nihče ne mara (zaradi česar se lahko počutimo žalostno, depresivno).
Lahko sami upamo, da se oseba ne ustavi, ker smo prepričani, da smo dolgočasni in ne bomo imeli ničesar zanimivega povedati (lahko sproži skrb, tesnobo).
Lahko mislimo, da je oseba namenoma vzvišena (kar lahko sproži jezo, užaljenost).
Bolj uravnotežen odziv pa bi bil, da nas morda oseba preprosto ni opazila.
VKT nam lahko pomaga prepoznati in razbiti začarani krog omejujočega razmišljanja, čustvovanja in vedenja. Ko jasno vidimo, kako ti deli med seboj vplivajo, jih lahko počasi začnemo spreminjati – in tako postopoma izboljšamo svoje počutje.
Pogosto se tega kroga misli, čustev in vedenj sploh ne zavedamo, saj so naši odzivi lahko zelo avtomatski. Temeljijo na globoko zakoreninjenih prepričanjih o sebi, drugih in svetu, ki smo jih razvili skozi življenje. Ravno ta prepričanja pa so temelj tega, kako si razlagamo vsakodnevne dogodke in situacije.
VKT nam pomaga prepoznati in preveriti ta prepričanja ter razviti bolj realistične in podporne načine razmišljanja, kar dolgoročno vodi do večje čustvene stabilnosti in izboljšanja počutja.

I am very satisfied with the results and would warmly recommend this experience to any team that wants to achieve top-level performance and bring a shared vision to life.

As part of the program, we learned how to leverage each individual’s strengths in their strongest areas, which helped us assign tasks that suited them best and thereby increase productivity and efficiency. We introduced a more structured and systematic approach to goal setting and tracking, problem-solving, as well as recognition and encouragement. We are now more consistent in pursuing concrete goals and a shared vision, and individuals take their responsibilities more seriously.
This contributed to the fact that in recent months we have launched many new products, entered new markets, and further accelerated the company’s growth.

I decided to join BRST Psychology programs because I wanted to get to know myself better and step outside my comfort zone by allowing myself to be vulnerable, even among unfamiliar faces. Since starting the program, I’ve noticed that I am gentler with myself, judge myself less, overthink much less, and better understand why and how I function the way I do.

I decided to join BRST Psychology programs because I wanted to get to know myself better and step outside my comfort zone by allowing myself to be vulnerable, even among unfamiliar faces. Since starting the program, I’ve noticed that I am gentler with myself, judge myself less, overthink much less, and better understand why and how I function the way I do.
Throughout the sessions, I gained many insights about myself, and above all, practical and useful tools on how to help myself. Kaja led the workshops exceptionally well—what I appreciated most was that she truly listened to us and adapted the program to our needs and wishes. I also loved that everything took place in such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
A wonderful experience!

I am very grateful for all the knowledge I gained during the sessions and have since implemented in my everyday life. I learned how to cognitively restructure my thoughts, became aware of my needs around habits, and discovered ways to successfully establish new ones. I also learned relaxation techniques that I use daily, as well as what I can do myself to create a more supportive environment.

The BRST Psychology lecture on stress was excellent. We often hear a lot about stress, but the presenters finally explained simple and practical solutions for recognizing and managing stressful situations in a clear and accessible way. I realized that I’m sometimes not even aware when I’m under too much stress—now I recognize it better, and I’m trying to incorporate the exercises they shared into
