The Therapy Process

 

Therapy with me provides you with space 

and time to talk about your concerns and troubles.  This may be when you are feeling depressed, experiencing distress or dissatisfaction with life.  


You could be struggling with your relationships or ways of being.  I believe nothing should feel too difficult or taboo to explore together.


I will not offer advice, or tell you what to do, as I believe you are the best 'expert' on you.


With exploration and new perspectives, this can lead you to greater awareness and new insights.


I understand looking at difficult personal aspects and showing vulnerability can be painful in the presence of another but with our developing therapeutic relationship, I aim to relieve some of that pain.

Number of Sessions Required

 

I work open-ended with no specific number of sessions, to meet your needs.  


To maintain ethical practice, there will be reviews where you/we can reflect on your progress.  


Reviews can help find the right time for you to end.


Client Range

 

I work with male and female clients, aged 18 and above.

Couples & Relationship Counselling


My work with couples is based on my philosophy for individuals.


I believe in an impartial approach for you both to be seen and heard without judgement.


My aim is for you to gain awareness of yourselves in relationship, to undesrtand what's happening between you both for a way foward.


For equality, I will always work with you together, not individually.
