My Services
Our first session together is a chargeable assessment, where we will decide if we feel we can work together. In this session, I am seeking to understand your situation, while you are assessing if I am the right therapist for you. After this, I suggest a 24-hour period of consideration, when you can decide if you wish to continue. The therapeutic relationship is considered in research to be the most important factor in a successful therapeutic experience. Should you wish to commence, an initial contract of 6 sessions would be offered. The sixth session would include a review to see whether further sessions are required, although each session will include a review of progress. If considered appropriate, the option of an open-term contract may then be offered. This means wherever possible we will both commit to ongoing therapy until you feel the work is complete.
An opportunity in a safe and professional environment to seek understanding, resolve behavioural issues and move forward with confidence.
I work with couples at every stage of their relationship. As with individual counselling, our first session together is an assessment, where we will decide if we feel we can work together. Should this be agreed then an initial contract of sessions would be offered. If considered appropriate the option of an open-time contract may then be offered. This means wherever possible we will both commit to on-going therapy until you feel the work is complete.
My couples work embraces all kinds of relationships and stages of relationship
including new couples and divorce counselling with the focus on an amicable
and peaceful a separation as possible.
I am very experienced in running group therapy sessions and am able to incorporate workshop style and CBT elements to the group dynamic while also delivering Process groups that allow the group to grow through sharing.
I lead and train groups and individuals in mindfulness and find this particularly helpful for people experiencing anxiety and depression. Some clients find it helpful to end or start their session with a short guided mindful meditation.
I am highly experienced as a Supervisor having supervised a team within the Third Sector and a Supervisor for University Psychotherapy Masters Students. Please contact me if you would like to explore supervision with me.
