How long do I need therapy?

Therapy is very individual and gives you space to work on your needs with a chosen therapist. After an initial consultation, you would be able to decide whether short term or long term therapy migh be suitable for you. Some individuals prefer to stay short term for a variety of reasons.

Others stay longer, because they need more time to reflect and work through their individual needs. I provide short term therapy of 6 up to 20 sessions, with an option of being open ended. This is until you feel you have done enough for yourself, to be ready to go through the challenges life brings every day.​​

How can Therapy support me?

People often ask me about the benefits counselling/psychotherapy offer, and how these disciplines can help them to change or enhance their lives. I believe, that counselling and psychotherapy may support you in many different ways.  For example, if you struggle to manage your feelings in situations where you need to be fully present and able to engage with others. It also provides you a safe space wherein you can bring any concerns, you do not feel comfortable sharing or are afraid of voicing elsewhere. Everyone of us is unique in their own way, and has different needs and wants to be fulfilled. I support my clients on their journeys towards positive change, and believe, that each client has the answers deeply embedded within themselves. Very often we do not realise, that we already have the strength and skills within ourselves. These become unseen, unrecognised throughout our lives and simply need a support of a therapist to be rediscovered. ​​
