Louise Dyer

I have availability Monday to Wednesday and can be flexible during those days

I offer an holistic creative approach to supervision taking on board the counsellors welfare as well as their client caseload and the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client.  

I am happy to work with trainee counsellors as well as experienced qualified therapists.  My fees are £60 for 1 hour, £80 for 1 hour and 30 minutes and £100 for 2 hours (twice a month for trainees)

The first session is about how we can work together what works for you and what doesn't.  I will go through what approaches I use for supervision and go through the contract. There will be time for you to introduce me to your caseload and how you feel about working with your clients 

My Private Practice runs from Monday to Thursday  earliest appt is 10am and latest appt is 4pm

The type of therapy I offer is an integrative and relational approach, which emphasises the importance of the therapeutic relationship.  Integrating various aspects of counselling models, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person Centred Therapy (PCT), Psychodynamic, Gestalt, Attachment Theory and Transactional Analysis (TA), as well as other therapeutic approaches, this enables me to work holistically and collaboratively with a client and their needs. The benefits are likely to be increased self-awareness, understanding underlying issues that could be contributing to the initial problem and facilitating helpful coping strategies, leading to positive change for the client.

I work Mondays to Thursdays daytime only 

My aim is to provide a confidential counselling & psychotherapy service for both individuals and couples to help those struggling with a variety of challenging situations.  Sharing and talking things through with a counsellor can help in finding ways of resolving issues, changing perspectives, and coping with life. My role as a counsellor is to provide a safe, trusting environment in which to explore these difficulties. The ultimate aim is to enable the individual or couple to make their own choices and decisions with issues that arise and to function more effectively in their life.

The first session includes an assessment and exploring what is bringing the client to counselling at this time.  I charge my normal rate for this session and if the client is happy to proceed with sessions then I would email a counselling agreement for the the client to read through, sign and return either by email or bring along to session if it is face to face.
