About me and my therapy practice
I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, which means I am trained to see you 3xweekly in long term psychotherapy. However I sometimes suggest short term work which can be 4-6 sessions or upto 3 months, while long term is more than 18 months.
After an initial session I usually send you a contract online. This gives you a chance to look at pre conditions for continuing with me such as :
1. fee agreed during initial session,
2. paying for missed sessions,
3. holiday breaks and
4. ethical matters like making complaints.
Once you have read the contract and confirmed your next session, we continue once a week (or more, as discussed/needed), preferably at the same time and day as we began.
Practice description
In my consulting room, I have two chairs (including my chair) and a chaise. The latter is used in the classical psychoanalytic way- to free associate whilst looking away from the therapist. Some clients use it because they have had previous experience of doing so while some work up to it.
Generally, people like sitting in the chair. I have bookcases which house mainly psychoanalytic literature and other related topics. Also, the room has artefacts from my travels.
My first session
An initial or first session will help you get an idea of what it would be like to work with me.
In the session we will discuss:
1. Your issue and explore underlying trauma
2. Whether this issue can benefit from psychoanalytic psychotherapy
3. My terms and conditions, which are in line with how psychoanalytic therapy is practised in the UK
4. A time frame and finance
After the initial session, I will send you a contract online to give you an overview of pre conditions to working with me. If you are satisfied, we continue weekly on the same day and time.
