What is mindfulness?

  • Mindfulness is the practice of being in the present moment, aware of all bodily sensations and thoughts.

  • In a mindful state, individuals observe their thoughts without indulging in negative behaviours.

  • Mindfulness can alleviate addictive behaviours.

  • Practising mindfulness during therapy may be difficult at first as it requires you to simply sit with your thoughts rather than act upon them.

How can MAPP help?

  • Observing negative thoughts without indulging them can be difficult, especially if you’re prone to anxiety or stress.

  • We have a number of psychologists with expertise in the practice of mindfulness, and they can help you become expert too.

  • They take the time to really listen, and to gain a deep understanding of your specific needs before anything else.

Can therapy support mindfulness?

  • Over time you will become accustomed to practising mindfulness.

  • Therapies such as person-centred therapy (PCT) and acceptance commitment therapy (ACT) cultivate the act of becoming mindful of one’s present state of mind.

  • As you become mindful through meditation and observation, you can better understand the root of unwanted behaviours.

What results can you expect?

  • If you’re recommended a course of mindfulness, whether as a standalone treatment or part of an integrative approach, you’ll begin to see the results quickly.

  • After around eight weeks of treatment, you will notice how you can look at thoughts or worries without them interfering with your mental welfare.

  • Mindfulness is great for anyone who struggles with anxiety issues or stressful situations.

  • Promoting a mindful state will aid you in your career as you will be able to cope with difficulty better.

At MAPP, therapy starts with you.

Your psychologist takes the time to listen, then builds a plan around your goals and circumstances.

What makes that possible is the depth & range of training and experience our doctors of psychology bring to the table. Our psychologists are trained in a broad span of therapy modalities, from CBT and ACT to compassion-focused therapy, person-centred therapy and everything in between.

We fit the approach to you, not you to the approach, and regular check-ins keep it working as your needs change.

We're committed to giving you the support and tools you need to build towards a happier, healthier life.
