How I Work
An Integrative Approach to Therapy
I practice integrative counselling and psychotherapy, combining several psychological theories and techniques into a cohesive and relational way of working tailored to each client. This means your therapy is personalised to your unique experiences, goals and needs, because 'one size does not fit all'.
A Collaborative Process
I work collaboratively with clients, as you are the true expert in your own life. My role is to guide exploration, support self-understanding, and help you recognise your inner strengths, so that you can manage challenges more effectively. In my view, the therapeutic relationship is central to change. Thus, I pay close attention to the relational dynamics in sessions and regularly offer and invite feedback to ensure therapy stays effective, relevant, and supportive for you.
The Initial Consultation
It is completely normal to feel nervous about starting therapy. An initial consultation gives us a chance to get to know one another, discuss your goals, and answer any questions you may have about therapy.
If we decide to work together, we will:
-
Create a flexible treatment plan tailored to your needs
-
Agree on session times, days and frequency
-
Schedule regular reviews and collaboratively decide on the length of therapy
This approach ensures therapy is safe, supportive, and personalised, helping you move forward and feel more in control of your life.
