Psychological therapy and counselling offer clients the opportunity to gain insight into their difficulties or distress, establish a greater understanding of their motivation, find more appropriate ways of coping and develop the tools necessary to bring about changes in their thinking and behaviour. Our therapists will work with you to explore an aspect of your life, personality or relationship, or help you reach your goals. We work using a range of different evidence-based therapies and techniques, including psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural, solution focused and mindfulness based cognitive therapy, helping you t explore your past, current or future concerns. We will also work with different modalities dependent on your needs and goals. The reasons people seek psychotherapy and counselling are as varied as people themselves, however people often come to therapy because they have encountered distressing or stressful experiences or are suffering from problems in their professional or personal lives. Some of the key reasons clients come to see us are: Anxiety Adjustment to being a parent Birth trauma Birth fear Depression, including postnatal depression Eating behaviours OCD Parenting issues Personality disorders Relationship difficulties Self-esteem Stress management Individual therapy usually involves regular, 50‐minute meetings with a therapist at the same time and place, usually every week. However sessions can be more often if needed. Therapy can range from short term (6, 8, 10 or 12 sessions) to long term (2 years+) depending on individual client's needs. We will discuss this with you at the initial assessment.
