About me and my therapy practice
Therapy is not a one size fits all and within my practice I offer personal therapy which takes into account your own story and what you need from me.
I am trained as an integrative adult therapist which means I can support with issues affecting your 'here and now' also known as person centred therapy. I am also able to integrate issues which may be affecting you from your past and childhood experiences which is often classed as psychodynamic therapy.
My aim is to blend these together in a safe and supportive way to allow you to explore what's affecting you. I believe that each person has the answers to their own issues within them, but sometimes we need a little support to reach these answers.
Practice description
I practice in a relational way which means that you can expect warmth, empathy and non judgement from me. Our therapy will be a safe and confidential space where you can find help to explore your issues.
I will be a trustworthy and honest companion on your journey through the counselling process. I will not advise you or coach you but will be with you every step of the way as you navigate your issues in our therapy. My aim is to help provide some insights into what may be happening for you and to gently 'hold up a mirror' to the challenges you are facing. By doing this together we can take this at a pace which suits you and allows you to progress through difficulties with peace and acceptance.
My first session
I offer a free no obligation 15 minute phone call prior to arranging the first session. This is for you to bring any queries or concerns you have and for us to see how it may be to work together.
If we both feel that we would like to continue we can arrange an in person or online session.
Within our first session I aim for clients to gain an understanding of what they can expect from me. Whether you have had therapy before or this is a totally new experience we can explore your goals and how best I can support you. I use this opportunity to take a few details on you and what you feel is most important for me to know before our therapy starts.
