The Way We Work
Formative Psychology
Formative Psychology recognises that individuals live a personal bodied life which is unique to them. Deep patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving, which we are mostly unaware of, shape our lives in a multitude of ways. Formative Psychology makes a cortical connection to physical emotional states which increases self-contact, generating insight and increasing voluntary influence over how we experience our self, how we regulate and re-shape the ways we respond to the world, and how to form new ways of being in the world.
Humanistic Psychotherapy
Humanistic Psychotherapy values wellbeing, personal freedom, autonomy and self-agency; the ability to take charge of your life. It encourages these values and works with clients to become what they may be and resolves deep and underlying problems in support of developing individual potential. The humanistic therapist recognises the importance of trust and open communication in working to achieve these goals.
Classical Acupuncture & Herbs
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine is the oldest system of healing known today. At its core is a recognition that body, mind, spirit are an integrated whole. Treatment recognises that many diseases come from underlying patterns of disharmony. The goal of treatment is to restore harmony and in many cases to provide the conditions to create a new state of balance, one that has not previously existed.
Our History
The Spectrum Studio Highgate was opened in 2021 by Terry Cooper, Tim Davis and Mike Wibberley out of their desire to continue to work together in a professional environment to share their professional skill sets and work with an experienced, reliable and committed team of colleagues. Terry’s orientation is Formative Psychology, Tim is a classical Acupuncturist and Herbalist and Mike is a Humanistic Psychotherapist.
Spectrum is one of the most experienced and accomplished centres for psychotherapy in the UK. Established in 1976 by Terry Cooper and Jenner Roth, Spectrum has over 50 years of therapeutic experience working with people. Its years of clinical practice and the therapeutic programmes it designed and evolved over the decades, for both personal growth and development as well as professional training and supervision, form the foundation on which its work has stood the test of time.
Spectrum officially ended the Spectrum Training Programme and its organisational membership in the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) in 2024. Those colleagues who were registered with the UKCP through Spectrum have been offered individual registration and other colleagues are now registered through the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
After 43 years of being in a large double fronted Victorian house in Finsbury Park, Spectrum moved in 2021 to our new home, refurbished offices in Highgate Village, where we continue to offer individual, couples and group psychotherapy. We have also continued our professional supervision programmes for practising therapists and continue professional development workshops for the Spectrum professional community.
The Spectrum professional community continues to exist as a large resource of therapists who offer individual, couples and group therapy with a range of on-going specialised groups and topics.
We look forward to your visiting us.
