Angus Bailey

I offer a confidential and safe space in my home for you to explore any mental health issues that you are experiencing. As a qualified psychotherapist you will find that I am non judgemental, and can offer both empathy and compassion. At a pace determined by you, we will work creatively together as you move towards being the best version of yourself. The journey might involve gaining insights into yourself, and how you relate to your enviroment. However it may be that you just want someone to listen and validate your experience.

I am first and foremost an integrative therapist and draw on person-centred, psychodynamic, gestalt, solution and compassion focused approaches. I am also a qualified and accredited Level 2 Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) practitioner and have found this form of energy healing to work well in conjunction with these approaches. This is also a beneficial resource that you would be able to utilise in between sessions if you so wished.

In order to develop professionally I stay abreast of emerging psychological, social and neurobiological research findings. I also engage in frequent CPD training. I have regular one to one and group supervision which helps to inform my practise.

I offer an initial consultation of 30 minutes which would cost £20. In this meeting I would learn about what brings you to therapy, and whether you would be seeking to work in the short or long term. Short term work would normally last between 6 to 12 sessions. This might be more goal specific, with a focus on more immediate issues. With long term work we would explore deep rooted issues, for example a childhood trauma. Above all the initial meeting is a chance for us to see if we could blend and work together.

Please note I am not available between Friday 30th August and Tuesday 17th September. I will respond to e mails and calls on my return.
