My approach

At the beginning of a longer-term therapy, after an initial assessment, I will concentrate on getting to know a client and hearing their story in a relational way. This I find is the basis of any successful therapy, as it creates a space of safety and trust to work on the issues being presented.

People generally say they find me accepting and a good listener. This stage often involves clients finding things to say they have not been able to say before. I also am happy to use humour in sessions as this can help with more difficult things.

After the first 8 weeks I will schedule in a review to ensure we still are able to work together. This may only take a few moments, or maybe we will discuss things more. In longer-term therapy I schedule in reviews so we can see where we are.

As things develop (or if a client is wanting this) I may start introducing other methods than just talking things through. My training is integrative, so I can draw on a large number of tools from many traditions. These include Gestalt, roleplay, and creative imagination techniques such as imagework, family constellations and Jungian active imagination to allow for a deeper exploration of the issues initially presented.

In my view, therapy is an exploration and so should have an element of fun in it, as well as the difficulties that inevitably come up. My experience is that can lead to a better life. I look forward to meeting you.
