About me and my therapy practice
I understand therapy to be a shared space in which we have a common goal. The goal is for your own sense of well-being. I am here to be with you on your journey of self discovery. I will sit by your side offering you different points of view. This will help you do deepen your awareness by giving you larger perspectives on the situations that trouble you. I am here to help you find the key to your own answers.
Practice description
My approach is integrative, this means I dont believe there is only one type of therapy. In my work with you i will draw on methods from different perspectives depending on what feels right for you at the time. I will adapt them to what works best for you.
I will follow your lead, welcoming all you bring to session. This could be experiences in the present or past or worries for the future. This may also be feelings or experiences that are happening in the moment, aswell as journals, dreams and anything you may like to share.
My first session
Having experience of being a client myself, I understand that the first session can feel daunting. I will use this space to get to know you and to answer any questions you may have. I will invite you to tell me about what brought you to counselling aswell as any goals you may have. If once meeting me you feel like counselling isnt for you , then you have no obligation to return.
If we do agree to work togather, we would arrange to meet at the same time and place for 50 minutes.
