Tyler White

My availability is as follows:

• Tuesday morning at a practice in Farnham for in-person clients (weekly sessions)
• Monday's (Evening Slots available as of November/December)
• Saturday mornings (limited morning availability)

I work relationally, which means the connection between us is at the heart of the work. I offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you can explore what’s troubling you, how your past experiences may be shaping the way you feel and relate today, and what’s going on in your life right now. 

As an integrative counsellor, I draw mainly on psychodynamic and person-centred ways of working, and use other modalities such as Transactional Analysis, which can help us make sense of the different parts of ourselves and the patterns we fall into. 

Together we’ll notice patterns as they arise, including in how we work together, and adapt the work to what you need in order to move towards where you want to be. Alongside gaining insight and understanding, I hope you’ll come to feel accepted as you are.

I am naturally curious about how our patterns of behaviour drive us and where these come from; I aim to help walk alongside people as they discover and uncover the patterns that have been shaping their lives. I sit beside you, helping you to uncover these patterns and then support you in making the changes that feel right for you. 

Having come from a sporting and coaching background where adaptation is key, I am very flexible in my approach and am happy to work creatively with clients too. I appreciate the level of depth that can be reached when working creatively and feel that it can at times, open up doors that otherwise may remain shut, as words cannot always seem to unlock certain doors.

I am open to working with people on both a short term (6-12 sessions) and longer term; open-ended basis, appreciating that everyone has different things that they hope to get from therapy. 

I believe that we're all unique and so our first session together will look different for everyone, however, at it's core that first session will see us exploring what it is that brought you to counselling and together we will work together to see how best I can support you. 

This first session will give us a chance to go over the therapeutic agreement, which I will send over to you via email in advance to read through (or we can do that together in person - that's your choice). 

The idea - in my practice - is that this first session gives us a chance to connect, to begin to build some rapport and to identify the best steps to take together moving forwards.
