The Linden Method
A shared focus on the threat response
Many anxiety concerns involve a threat response that fires when there is no genuine danger, though conditions such as OCD, PTSD and eating disorders are distinct and need clinical assessment. Threat Recalibration Therapy™, developed by the Institute of Applied Psychophysiology, works with these learned threat responses through structured, practical steps.
Coaching applies these Institute-developed principles, personalised to you. Suitability and outcomes vary, and coaching is not a diagnosis or a replacement for medical care.
