About me and my therapy practice
Hi, I'm Joshua, a professional counsellor and registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
I know how daunting it can be looking for a counsellor, or finding who will match your needs and expectations. So I will talk you through how I work and what I can offer you, to hopefully take away any confusion and to make your search a little easier.
If you have any questions at all, I will be more than happy to help you.
Practice description
My approach is relational and integrative which means that I believe that the relationship is key to your growth and change. The integrative part is the modalities I use which is combination of CBT, Psychodynamic and Person centred, solution focused or mindfulness. This style of working allows me to tailor counselling to suit your needs, which recognises that we are all unique individuals.
By providing a safe and confidential space free from judgement to explore your difficulties, we can work together to meet your aims and goals in counselling such as managing anxiety, dealing with depression, relationship issues, work, stress or working through trauma.
My first session
In the first session, we will explore your aims and goals in counselling and decide together how I can best support you with this.
I will provide an in-depth assessment with a gentle approach. This allows me to understand exactly what support you have and what support you need. It provides me with an insight in to your life and how I can step into your inner world and support you.
We will look at forming a therapy contract and explore any questions or expectations you may have.
