About me and my therapy practice
I am a Counsellor/Psychotherapist with 25years’ experience currently freelance in Private Practice. I offer both short-term (brief intervention) and long-term therapy. I see clients face-to-face and via video link.
My work is informed by psychodynamic/psychoanalytical and philosophical theory as well as developments in neuroscience.
I offer an initial mutual assessment over 1.5hrs and include a standardised evidence based questionnaire at this first meeting.
The therapeutic sessions are client led following the initial assessment.
Practice description
I aim to facilitate thinking and processing of life's experiences with an empathic approach allowing the client time and space to explore and analyse in a safe environment.
I believe in reflective practice, therefore integrate a review of the progress the client is making following 8 to 10 sessions.
The client can expect a dynamic non judgemental experience, within a framework of containment.
