What to expect

  1. An initial session

    In the initial session we will spend time clarifying your issues and what you hope to gain from counselling or psychotherapy. Together we will decide whether you could benefit from some sessions.

  2. Six sessions, then a review

    Usually I offer six sessions which are generally weekly, after which we review progress and decide if longer term could be of benefit.

  3. No obligation to continue

    The initial session gives you the opportunity to meet me and to find out whether working with me might benefit you. Attending an initial session does not mean you are obliged to continue with further sessions.

Psychotherapy and counselling

Psychotherapy and Counselling help you gain greater insight and understanding into your thoughts, feelings and actions, this process enables you to have greater freedom to make the choices you want in life. I will listen in a non-judgmental and unbiased way and will provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore any issues and feelings which may be difficult to discuss with others.

By gently exploring your present experience you can gain a greater awareness of who you are and what you need. Psychotherapy and counselling can help make new connections that can lead to a greater understanding of your past which allows you to move forward into a better future. Through this supportive relationship, habitual ways you may experience yourself can be gradually explored. This process leads to a greater freedom and range of possibilities in your life and in your relationships.

Good to know

Counselling or Psychotherapy?

Counselling is generally shorter term and often aimed towards a specific goal.

Psychotherapy is generally longer term and seeks to look in depth at patterns of behaviour and ways of feeling that may have their origins in childhood.

Supervision

Supervision provides a safe and supportive space for practitioners to reflect on their practice. I see supervision as a co-operative and facilitating process which enables the supervisee to feel supported in their work and to develop and grow professionally. I have completed further training in supervision with Metanoia in London.
