Theresa De Prey

I will always to try to find a time that suits you. Please contact me so we can arrange a free initial 15 minute telephone call.  This will give you a chance to tell me a little about what brings you to therapy at this time and to ask any questions you may have.   

Hi my names Theresa. I am passionately committed to helping you with your anxiety, depression or past trauma. Do you feel the behaviours or substances you use to cope are negatively affecting your life? Are you isolated, misunderstood, unheard or hiding yourself from others?

Together we will work to uncover the root causes of your feelings and the negative behaviours they lead to. My therapy offers a unique and safe space to process painful emotions so you can make more positive life choices.

Please contact me to book your first session or for a free 15 minute telephone

The benefits of therapy can be empowering and transformative leading to:

• An understanding and reframing of negative feelings

• A reduction or ending of unhealthy coping mechanisms.

• More confidence in yourself

• Better relationships and increased enjoyment in life

My training is from a Psychodynamic perspective.  This means that I am interested in looking at your childhood and the learnt behaviours or emotions that may be negatively affecting your life today.  This leads to a better understanding and reframing of what may be causing your anxiety, depression or substance misuse.  The aim is to enable you to make more positive life choices.  |I am active in my sessions meaning I will be asking, linking and suggesting connections from past to present.  In order to work on your current priorities we will look to the present for connections to the past.

The aim of my initial session is for you to space to ask questions on how we would work together.  In addition I will complete an assessment in order to gain a general overview of your past and current situation and to find out in more detail what brings you to therapy.  This means that this session will be more directive than those going forward.  This gives us a good framework for our future work together.    You will also be asked to sign a contract which we will go through together in order to continue sessions together.
