About me and my therapy practice
I’m an integrative therapist which means that although I work from a foundation of Person-Centred Counselling, I also include aspects from some other methods of Talking Therapy ~ Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy with Choice Theory, NLP, CBT etc., whatever will be the most constructive & helpful to each unique client. Everyone is different. These is no ‘one size fits all’ so I work alongside each person encouraging them towards healing and wholeness and helping them gain understanding & learn techniques that will help them progress.
Practice description
The practice addresses a very wide range of emotional and behavioural challenges that people find themselves struggling with. Anxiety & Depression, Low self-esteem, Obsessional Compulsive Disorder, Bereavement, Loss, Relationship recovery, Domestic Violence Recovery, Abuse Recovery, Redundancy, Eating disorders, Couples Counselling etc.,
Spiritual Counselling is also an option for those who wish to include a Biblical perspective in their recovery.
My first session
Appointments are usually made by agreement via email or text. During COVID all appointments are online via WhatsApp or FaceTime
Waiting time is usually around 2 weeks.
An appointment lasts 50 minutes. Initially we complete a client contract form together ~ simple details like name & address, confidentiality assurances & limitations. And then into the details that have brought you to Talking Therapy. My approach is Client-Centred.
