Working towards greater freedom
Why therapy
“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.”
Carl Gustav Jung
Coming to therapy is giving yourself time and space to make sense of confusing feelings and experiences, to better understand your emotions and relationships, to discover deeper aspects of yourself.
Therapy can help with a broad range of issues:
stress & anxiety
low mood & depression
trauma - childhood & adulthood
shame
difficulty relating & connecting to others
loneliness
abuse - emotional, physical, sexual, neglect, bullying
grief & loss of a loved one, health, home, culture
self-hatred & self-harm
low self-esteem & perfectionism
“Loneliness does not come from having no people around, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you.”
Carl Gustav Jung
What to expect
You will find safe and confidential space to talk and to explore your dificulties, to think about your feelings and to explore your way forward.
Together we will look at both conscious and unconscious aspects of your life; we will explore patterns in your interactions and explore your relationship dynamics with yourself and others.
As children we may have learned to be a certain way and developed certain patterns that once used to shield us from harm but now are getting in way. We will work towards greater awareness and acceptance of yourself, greater attunement to your needs so you can make more intentional choices and live in a more fulfilled way.
First steps
-
Please fill out the ‘get in touch’ form or write me a quick email to arrange a 15-minute initial call where we can discuss what brings you to therapy and how I can support you. We can then arrange to have an initial session.
-
During the initial session you will have a chance to share what has brought you to therapy and how it is impacting your life, for you to voice your expectations or any concerns you might have, for us to discuss practical matters like fees. Our initial session is also a chance for you to see if you would feel comfortable and would like us to work together.
-
My fees range from £80 to £100 for once-a-week 50-minute sessions whether they are remote (video) or face-to-face sessions, the same applies to the initial session.
I also offer limited reduced-fee places for those on low incomes, which can be discussed during the initial call. Reduced fee for initial & ongoing sessions ranges from £50 to £60.
