WHAT DO I OFFER?
As an integrative therapist I have trained apply a number of psychological theories and practical approaches to counselling. These include person-centred therapy, psychodynamic therapy, Gestalt, transactional analysis, CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and others. Integrative therapy means being flexible in approach based on what the client wants and needs most at the time. We can discuss any questions you might have. These are all underpinned by key conditions essential for a good experience of therapy, including:
FEELING COMFORTABLE AND SAFE
I aim to help you feel comfortable in the quiet, private space I offer. This is important for feeling safe and able to share and explore.
BE TRULY HEARD AND UNDERSTOOD
Feel heard and understood, both in spoken and implicit communication, without judgement or prejudice. I provide genuine empathy and will be with you every step of a challenging but rewarding journey.
PROFESSIONAL, ETHICAL PRACTICE
I strictly adhere to the ethical framework as part of my membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
