I believe we all need support at times and that it can be difficult seeking support. In response I give you the opportunity to find such help. I offer individual short-term and long-term psychotherapy for teenagers and adults. As part of my service, I offer ethical, data protected online therapy, and face to face sessions in my peaceful office.
I am an integrative trained counsellor with a broad range of experience working with adults and young people. As an integrative therapist, the way I work is to integrate different theories to create a treatment that is a fit for you. Every client is different hence I always adjust the process to your needs to help you the best.
If you need to focus on a specific issue, we can use elements of CBT approach to find the solution. If you need to learn new skills to manage your emotions and relationships, we could utilize some DBT ideas. If you need to find additional support to affect your subconscious in order to fight a bad habit or change unhealthy pattern, we may use the tools offered by hypnotherapy. Whatever you are struggling with I am here to support you, help you to find the way to understand the background of the problem and overcome it.
The first time we meet is an opportunity for us to discuss why you wish to access counselling and how counselling might help you. It is an opportunity for you to determine if you feel comfortable talking to me, and for me to decide if I am the right therapist to help you. If I feel that I am unable to help, I will discuss other options that may be helpful to you.
Normally I use the therapeutic methods discovered and refined over the years by the best-known psychologists, psychiatrists and therapists. In my practice I use elements of many approaches, e.g.: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Existential Therapy, Rogerian Person Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Inner Child Therapy, Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy and many more. Because I am also accredited Hypnotherapist if you wish I can include some elements of hypnosis to out therapy or perform purely hypnotherapeutic sessions.
As a registered member of the The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and National Hypnotherapy Society, I abide by their ethical framework. As such I am accredited by Professional Standards Authority and you can find my details in Accredited Registers of the above organisations.
