3. What kind of therapeutic interventions can I expect during my psychotherapy?
   
   GNC promotes its own form of Empathy and Intuition Based Therapy (EIBT)™ that is based on mental and emotional healing by encouraging people to direct compassion towards themselves and others. With the belief that compassion is an emotional response and intuition a natural response central to well-being, EIBT uses a developmental framework to address several core forms of emotional wounding. Some of the aspects of psychotherapy utilized in this approach include Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), developmental psychology, social psychology, and spiritual philosophy.
