An integrative approach
In recent years there has been a real interest in gathering what is best in the fields of psychotherapy and counselling and integrating them to work in the particular way that is best for you. This is the approach which I follow – an integrative approach. Part of my training has been in a wide range of theories and schools of therapy spanning those (the humanistic traditions) focusing on what is going on in the "here and now", as well as the relational and analytic approaches, looking at the patterns which we get stuck in and how these relate to our past experience. I am also familiar with core CBT techniques and short term focused approaches, and stress and anxiety management . What I offer is the ability to provide a safe and supportive space in which to explore what your difficulties are with an approach which works for you.

Please do contact me to set up a non-commital intial meeting on 07876 441596 or email me using the link above.
At an initial assessment we would discuss the specific problems, difficulties which you are facing, the range of options open to you and different forms of treatment and therapy. Both short term or ongoing in-depth therapy would be considered depending on your needs. Normally I would suggest an initial 6 sessions which would be reviewed.
