How we might work together
Our sessions will be shaped around your unique situation, preferences, and needs. I work collaboratively and flexibly with you. As an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist, I can bring together methods and approaches from a range of therapy modalities to best support you.
Why people choose to work with me
I work flexibly and tailor an approach to you
I don’t try and fit you to a particular style of therapy: I am led by your needs and I tailor an approach to fit you and your situation.
I’m qualified in Integrative therapy, which means I’m trained and experienced in a range of well-researched therapy styles and methods which I can draw from to come up with a way to help with your particular needs.
I work creatively and flexibly and use different methods to help you discover insight into whatever is troubling you and find a way forward.
We can work together for a number of sessions you choose or on an open ended basis. You are not tied to a certain number of sessions and can stop therapy at any time. You will always have a say in how we work together.
I connect with you as your true and unique self
In our work together you will know that I believe in you. You will feel free to be your real self, without judgement, pressure or expectation.
I am committed to understanding your unique perspective and experience in order to connect with you and support you.
I take great care to build a trusting relationship so that you feel confident that I will guide and accompany you safely through your therapy journey.
You’ll have the space and time you need to explore what is important to you at a pace that feels right for you.
My personal style and approach
I’m warm, supportive, compassionate, and positive. You will feel heard, seen, and valued.
I’m attentive and insightful and can highlight patterns that might not be evident to you when you’re in the thick of the situation.
I’m encouraging and can help you discover your inner resources and strength. I’ll be persistent in helping you reframe negative self-talk and be self-compassionate.
I can help you keep on track and challenge you when you would find it helpful to build awareness or confront blind spots or blocks — always from the secure base of a trusting, caring relationship. I’ll always work with you to ascertain where you want the balance between support and challenge.
