Why Does Therapy Fail Patients?

Therapeutic Alliance

Study after study has shown that the quality of the relationship between client and therapist is the most reliable and powerful predictor of a positive therapeutic outcome.  Choose a therapist who gets you.

Purists

Just as one pill can’t cure all ailments, nor is there one therapeutic model that helps all patients.  This is true, even if 2 patients suffer from exactly the same set of symptoms.  A skilled therapist often needs to be an exceptional integrationist to best serve the patient.

A Presumptuous Therapist

As a therapist I never lose sight of the fact that I am not the expert on you.  You are the expert on your life and my role is to empower you to experience healthy thinking, feeling and behaviour that brings you greater happiness.

Therapy Interfering Behaviour

Sometimes, a patient displays behaviour that interferes with their treatment.  This might be due to many different reasons.  It is a therapist’s duty to recognise and point out such behaviour and help the patient to actively partake in their healing.

When asked, what I do for a living, I say: I give people HOPE. I just happen to use Therapy to do it.

How our other patients felt

Riaan guides you to heal yourself with perspective and practical application. He matched my pace and took my wounds as seriously and critically as I did.

Riaan has explained the cause of all my problems, and provides effective therapy with real results. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Riaan’s multi-disciplinary background really made him stand out relative to other therapists I have worked with. He was able to back up concepts with material evidence and explain them well, which helped me overcome skepticism towards some therapeutic techniques that otherwise feel “fluffy”. Very powerful when combined with his excitement about emergent approaches, his deep desire to help people, and last but not least, his seemingly infinite patience.

When you have no hope, no way forward. Feel caught up in everything and you cannot bear the pain anymore…then you meet Riaan. The person who saved my life. The highest level of knowledge, skill and empathy.

Riaan is a great therapist.  He knows what he is talking about and he has a huge knowledge in mental health. He listens carefully and is there when i need him.

The growth I underwent through Anna-Mart’s guidance has been life-changing! The goals I once thought unfeasible are in the rearview, and I get to constantly set the bar higher.

Dear Riaan and Anna-Mart

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to My Therapy for the incredible support and guidance I have received. From the very first session, I felt a genuine sense of empathy and professionalism that truly set the tone for my journey.

Your evidence based approach, which combines compassionate listening with practical, solution-focused strategies, has been instrumental in helping me navigate through my anxiety with academics and life.

Every session provided me with valuable insight and tools that I can apply in my daily life. Evidently, my anxiety significantly improved as well as my academics.

I am truly grateful for the positive changes in my life, and I wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone seeking therapy.

With sincere appreciation

I first started seeing Anna-Mart from My Therapy International in July 2023. Anna-Mart has had a huge impact on my life for the better, and I am so glad I took that leap of faith and booked my appointment.

As someone who has struggled with depression and anxiety for years, I was at a breaking point and was about to give in. Luckily, I met Riaan and I honestly believe if it was not for the therapy sessions with Riaan, things would have gone from bad to worse.
Listening without judgment and using a variety of techniques to adapt to my mood/feeling during the sessions were amazing. Being multi-disciplined, he could help and guide me in all aspects of my life with ease.
Riaan from my side I would like to thank you for all you have done for me. Your kindness and genuine care you have sown me will forever push me forward in life.

Thank you for everything.
