My Approach
My approach is down-to-earth. I offer a style of therapy developed as I completed my training as a therapist, one that continues to develope with ongoing training and one that delivers warmth, real interest with compassion and enough challenge to keep the mind stimulated and supported. It is essential that your objectives are met. After all, it's your time and your money.
Counselling and Psychotherapy are sometimes called talking therapies, and therefore most of the time the therapy sessions will feel like a good conversation with the normal questions, responses and stories but with the added benefit of good listening. Each session is personalised to match your explicit and implicit needs.
Included within the sessions may also be a variety of other techniques such as chair-work, relaxation and breathing skills and guided-imagery (where I lead the client on an imaginary journey with the intention of breaking fixed patterns or gaining greater clarity on aspects of themselves), and various others depending on the client's requirements.
