About me and my therapy practice
I use a multi-model approach depending on the presentation and individual needs of the client.
My working style is Integrative as I believe that everyone is an individual and thus needs an individually tailored style of therapy to suit. This is also flexible in nature and I aim to always work collaboratively with the client in an open and honest, empathic manner to support.
Working one-on-one with a client also allows for creation of a supportive therapeutic space to help the client explore, process and understand and begin to work through their areas of difficulty.
I have therapy aids that support in the therapeutic process (such as fidget toys/gadgets/colouring books/ tension toys).
Practice description
I work empathically and honestly with clients to aid in the healing process.
My aim is to help clients to reconnect back to all parts of themselves thus enabling them to reconnect with the rest of their life and to others.
The healing process is an individual journey and I aim to be a support to help clients to help themselves validating and bearing witness to their story. This leads to integration and healing whilst also sharing with the client supportive real-world tools and techniques to support them on their journey going forward and also helping with any pitfalls along the way.
My first session
After our Discovery Call and confirmation of an initial session, I will ask clients to fill in a Client Information form and a Therapy Information form and get these back to me before our first session commences.
The Client Information Form asks for your client details - only what is relevant.
The Therapy Information Form allows for more detail about aims for therapy / impact of the issues concerning you / your thoughts and feelings related to the issues. You are welcome to put as much or as little as is tolerable for you.
This form will then be used within our first session to begin exploring further.
