Pause Button Therapy and TactileCBT

We are proud to have become recognised as the developers of new cutting edge approaches in the field of general Therapy and Neuro Psychology. We are also proud to regularly work with therapists from around the world who wish to train and become accredited in best practice approaches. Of course it is our private clients that ultimately benefit the most from the many new developments that we have become associated with over recent years. In addition to using both Hypnotherapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, we now incorporate, when appropriate, either TactileCBT® or Pause Button Therapy® into our treatment protocols, we are proud that both of these new approaches were developed exclusively by ourselves.

University Presentations

TactileCBT stands apart from the other CBT approaches by transforming the mechanism for change from a passive process into an active, interactive and tactile experience. TactileCBT incorporates Pause Button Therapy, an approach that has been endorsed (on the grounds of its vast potential and usefulness) by Professors Windy Dryden (Goldsmiths University) and Philip Zimbardo (Standford University). We were pleased to be invited to present details of our work at several European University Psychology Conferences. In the Pause Button Therapy book (Hay House, 2013), Dr Theano Kalavana, University of Cyprus, wrote a chapter named 'Time Perspective & PBT' in which she stated: "PBT is probably the only tool in existence right now that bridges the gap between behavioural intention and actual behaviour and this is what classifies it as an effective therapeutic procedure that can lead to successful behavioural change." TactileCBT, incorporating PBT, is becoming increasingly recognised worldwide as a unique and innovative approach that has the potential to fundamentally change the way that practitioners work with their clients.

Neuropsychology

These new therapies integrate elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, solution focused approaches, cognitive psychology and neuropsychology. They are underpinned by time perspective theory, as proposed by Professor Philip Zimbardo.

As you will read on other pages of this site, at we have been helping people overcome a number of different problems for many years. Whist we continue to offer non-residential treatment at our clinic in Spain, over the years we have invested a considerable amount of both time and finances creating a cutting edge and very successful distance treatment programme, using Medias such as Zoom, Face Time and Skype. Whilst these sessions can be taken individually, we also offer a full ‘Virtual Rehab’ package, providing multiple sessions each day, along with 24/7 support, in effect mirroring the Rehab experience, but from the comfort and security of your own home, and of course at a fraction of the normal costs.
