What to Expect during Counselling and Psychotherapy

After an initial consultation in Camden Town, London, there is no obligation to proceed if you decide not to. As Client and Therapist, we can take the opportunity to explore the current or unresolved past challenges for which you seek Counselling or Psychotherapy. I will address any questions you may have. I will then be able to assess if my Counselling and Psychotherapy practice is right for you.

The aim of my Counselling and Psychotherapy practice is to attend to what brings you to therapy in a confidential and focused environment. To get the most from Counselling and Psychotherapy you will need to be able to be open to change.

As a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Accredited (MBACP Accred) Counsellor and Psychotherapist, I am highly trained and experienced in using Brief Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Relational Therapy to work with people to improve their wellbeing.

Brief Therapy

Brief Therapy is a short term approach which focuses on any unhelpful defences you may have set up in order to protect yourself from any difficult and conflicting feelings and experiences. It encourages a stronger self belief so you can make informed choices. Generally 1 to 24 sessions: depends on issue and other factors.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic Therapy works on the unconscious feelings that give rise to the complications and difficulties you may face in relationships, at home or work. It aims to enable you to understand and accept painful feelings that have a profound impact on your welbeing so you can move forward. Generally 1 to 40 sessions: depends on issue and other factors.

Relational Therapy

Relational Therapy focuses on your ways of relating to others, past and present. It draws attention to the often problematic patterns of relating that create recurring feelings of, for example, rejection, disappointment, abandonment, feeling let down or controlled. Thus helping you to develop healthier relationships. Generally 1 to 40 sessions: depends on issue and other factors.
