Services & Fees
Counselling and therapy services, and session fees.
Open Ended Psychotherapy
Open Ended Psychotherapy involves us meeting for 50 minutes once a week at the same time each week.
We will not have an end date set and will work together until we feel that it is time to finish – usually this is when clients feel better and are ready to stop.
There is no obligation for you to continue coming for therapy if you want to finish and we shall review how you feel the work is going regularly.
Relationship and Couples Counselling
Relationships can be hard and it can take a huge amount of courage to be intimate with another person. Various problems can arise; whether it be mistrust, cheating, boredom, anxiety, grief or resentment.
I offer couples counselling that is safe, free from blame and supportive. Couples counselling can be open ended or time limited. I have completed additional training at Tavistock Relationships and so take a psychodynamic approach to couples work.
Relationship counselling is not confined to romantic couples and can include relationships with children, siblings or parents. If you are finding it difficult to communicate with a significant person in your life relationship counselling may be able to help.
Time Limited Counselling
Time Limited Counselling involves arranging to meet for a set amount of weeks (I generally suggest 10-12 weeks) and we will work together with an end date in mind.
Time limited counselling is often extremely focused and concentrates on one particular area of difficulty.
EMDR
EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing. This form of therapy has been proven to be effective in treating post traumatic stress disorder and other symptoms caused by traumatic events in a person’s life. EMDR complements psychodynamic therapy comfortably as it traces triggers back into one’s past and seeks to contain and reprocess troubling memories.
This kind of therapy is particularly suited to people who know that they have been affected by past events but who may not feel ready to discuss them in detail. EMDR can be accessed as a stand alone treatment or alongside psychodynamic therapy.
Clinical Supervision
Clinical supervision is an essential part of being a safe and effective therapist. I offer supervision to counsellors and psychotherapists at any stage of their professional development.
Supervision with me will draw predominantly upon psychodynamic theory and will offer a space for you to reflect upon your practice in a way that is creative, supportive and thought provoking.
