I am offering telephone appointments and Zoom appointments on a flexible basis, and offer face to face appointments in Morley on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at the moment.About me and my therapy practice
In this way, I work in a way which integrates elements from a number of therapeutic traditions in order to develop an approach which suits individual clients and their particular difficulties. I aim to provide a proper balance between support and challenge for each person or couple, working with thoughts, feelings and behaviours, as each and all are likely to affect one's sense of well-being or have an impact on our relationships.
Whilst I generally offer "talking therapy", at times I might use creative or mindfulness techniques within my work if these are appropriate and clients are comfortable with working in these ways. I also offer the "Rewind Technique" for those who have experienced trauma or who have phobic responses. I am able to offer short term solution-focused therapy and longer term therapy working at depth to address longer-term difficulties and unhelpful behavioural or relational patterns. Standard fees are £65 for couples and £45 for individuals. Concessions are available.
My first session
The first session is concerned with discussing your current difficulties and priorities for the forthcoming work, as well as sharing information about your history, particularly in relation to significant relationships. The session also gives you the opportunity to ask about how I work.
During this session we will agree how we will work together, including practicalities such as payment, cancellations etc.
