Our relationship

We will have a 15 minute phone call to get to know each other. You can get a sense of how I work and I can hear your story. Then we'll have our first assessment session to discuss you, your history and assess your current mood. I'll ask a few questions and offer you a space to do the same. If it feels right for both of us, we'll meet at the same time each week for 50 minutes or 90 minutes if you're a couple.

​

​Therapy is your time. If you're new to it,  you may have anxieties and expectations. I'm here to help you explore patterns, negative thoughts, your inner child and a whole lot more. By forming a relationship with you, I can start to see parts of you that you may not see yourself. From a safe supportive space, I'll invite you to see these other parts. The aim is to help you understand the things or people that have shaped you. Maybe you need to let go of harmful thoughts or unlock suppressed feelings about past events. I will empower you to speak to yourself in a new, compassionate way.

​

Most of the time will be spent with you talking. There may be times that we need to explore another form of expression. This could include using art work, movement, role play, writing and visualisation. The most important thing is that you feel safe when doing this.
