About Talking Therapy Place

Talking Therapy Place is a clinical psychology and psychotherapy practice based in Attard, Malta. The practice was founded by Dr Emma Micallef-Konewko and Dr Kristina Bettenzana, both highly qualified clinical psychologists who spent a number of years working across various sectors within the NHS in England before returning to Malta.

The practice offers specialist therapy services to children, young people, adults, and families, and provides both individual and couples therapy as well as group sessions. Therapists are trained in a range of specialist modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Gestalt Psychotherapy, and Behavioural Therapy.

Talking Therapy Place also provides diagnostic assessments for autism, ADHD and ADD, learning difficulties, and learning disabilities. These assessments are carried out to NHS-trained clinical standards.

The practice's approach is to tailor therapy to the individual's specific presenting issues and needs, rather than applying a fixed protocol. Sessions are available to clients of all ages from children through to adults and couples.
