What to Expect during Counselling and Psychotherapy

I am an Integrative therapist, which means my training involved looking at a variety of theories and approaches to Psychotherapy.

As my client you are an individual and your concerns and issues that you bring are unique to you. You may wish to talk about your current situation or something of your past. There is no set pace at which we work but if you feel you need to set goals with a certain life situation that is fine too. The session is yours to use as you wish.

Sometimes it may help you to look inwardly to see where or what it is you are feeling with relation to your situation at the present moment. I can help you to access those inner feelings in a calm, gentle and non-judgemental way.

When we meet for the first time we will discuss what has brought you to seek counselling and for you to decide if I am the right person with whom to explore you problems. There is no obligation to continue if you are not sure.

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and adhere to their code of ethics. I offer short term and long term counselling and can offer concessions where applicable. I have the required level of insurance.

Additional Information

I can also offer Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy.

Focusing is a mode of inward bodily attention and is more than being in touch with your feelings. Focusing occurs exactly at the interface of body-mind. It consists of specific steps for getting a body sense of how you are in a particular life situation. The body sense is unclear and vague at first, but if you pay attention it will open up into words or images and you experience a felt shift in your body.
