What to expect from therapy
I believe having a space to talk privately is hugely important to some of us, and often people have not been granted the permission in their relationships to express what they feel and think about issues that are of concern to them.
In Therapy, you can find a way of giving yourself permission, and to explore your own difficulties at your own pace and that is suitable for you.
You can expect to become better informed with some Psycho-Educational work, along with the more traditional methods of support, and you can also learn the practice of Mindfulness. (MBT) Mentalized Based Therapy can be extremely helpful, combined with the exploration of some history and your current difficulties, should help you gain more understanding of yourself.
Effective and long lasting change can happen, if you want it to!
The sessions are weekly, I shall explain the way that I work at your first consultation, and we can discuss the length of time that you expect to be in Therapy, or just leave the process open, because therapy and your recovery will be specific to you, and more often there cannot be a time frame placed on this.
Just contact me on the details given info@counsellinglive24.co.uk and we can arrange a time that is suitable for us both. Once we have agreed a date and time, the first meeting shall be your consultation so that you can let me know what you need from Therapy, along with the difficulties you have been experiencing. At this session , I shall take some information from you including contact and family details, and I shall describe how I work so that you are fully informed of the whole process before making a decision.
An Individual meeting is just under an hour, Couples, Families, and Consultations have additional time and are charged accordingly. Fees are in the Contact page and can be requested upon your enquiry.
Concessions are offered for students and low waged/benefits.
