About Therapy
Therapy with me starts with a free 30 minute initial meeting. This gives you a chance to meet me, experience the therapy room, and get a general feeling for how it might be to have a session. There really is no pressure to continue with sessions if it doesn’t feel right and you will have the opportunity to ask any questions that you might have.
You do not need to commit to sessions right away, however if you decide to go ahead, the next time we meet is a full assessment, where I ask a series of questions to get a really good understanding of you and how life has been for you. This helps me to understand what might have brought you to therapy.
From this point sessions last 50 minutes and are at The Market Hill Therapy Room based in Central Buckingham. We meet weekly, usually on the same day at the same time. The sessions cost £70 per session.
The way I work
I work in an integrative, trauma-informed way and incorporate the Person-Centred approach, along with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Transactional Analysis (TA) and the Psychodynamic approach. I aim to develop a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship and we move at your pace, working through what you choose to discuss at each session. This way of working can be enlightening and hugely powerful.
I have a wide variety of experience including volunteering at a mental health charity, alongside experience of supporting those who have acquired a brain injury. My experience includes working with clients who face:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Bereavement
- Relationship issues
- Confidence issues
- Miscarriage
- Infertility
- Adoption
- Work-related stress
- Trauma
The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it - Moliere
