Thank you for viewing this profile and for considering my service,  Careful Spaces Therapy.

Anxiety, depression, fear, loss, rage and grief may feel like constant overwhelming companions, yet they can be held and resolved through therapy.

I offer kind, professional integrative therapy based upon our relationship and respecting your unique value. People seek psychotherapy for many significant reasons, it takes courage to face issues that are causing suffering or challenging you to heal and evolve. I aim to offer a warm, confidential and compassionate space so that as far as possible you feel secure, encouraged and ready to work through your challenges. I’m led by what you feel open to working with as you are the expert on your own experience. 

Good therapy involves mutual trust and often joyful, at times difficult exploration. Finding the right therapist is important and can be a delicate process, so I would like to encourage you to read several profiles, please feel free to contact me just for information or to book a session. Thanks for viewing my profile. 

Kind regards, 

Paul

As an Integrative therapist I use a range of techniques from different theoretical approaches, depending on which technique is most appropriate. I offer 1:1 therapy helping adults facing a wide range of issues, including attachment, trauma, family conflict, bereavement, depression, anxiety, ill health, work stress, gender, self identity and finding meaning.

The first 50 minute session is an opportunity for us both as client and therapist, to see how well we might work together and to establish the particular things you would like to address. 

There is no demand for you to disclose anything that you feel anxious or uncomfortable about, and what is disclosed is strictly confidential (unless I'm concerned that you may be at risk of seriously harming yourself or others).

If you decide that you wish to work with me, at the end of the session we'll discuss the details of the contract.
