During the last three decades several therapeutic models have developed at SHINUI. The "Change-Focused Psychotherapy"™* developed by Dr. Noga Nabarro, is a meta-level approach to therapy,  based on the integration of major Systemic and Ericksonian Approaches as well as on humanistic and holistic thinking, integrating body-mind and mindfulness practices. This approach has been taught by her in many countries. Shinui is also known for its creative ways of working and training of therapists.
