What Happens First
The first session is an assessment session, where I understand your problems and what your goals are for therapy.
The assessment session is also where you can decide if this is the right place for you, I can explain the process and answer any questions.
Following the assessment, we start our working sessions - 50 minutes long, unless you book longer sessions.
When & Where
Sessions are generally biweekly, although variations to this can be arranged.
In person by arrangement, or generally online using Zoom, Skype, or WhatsApp.
(We can also take an occasional walk & talk session - sit in nature to help the connection with yourself, heal from over stimulation & generally find peace)
Support
Work sheets are regularly provided.
Resources & suggestions to aid your process.
App`s, books, information & websites.
Please ask for any other desired support.
Brief Phone calls & email contact are provided in between sessions when needed.
I am here to support you on your journey………

Points
The focus of the therapy is to work towards your desired goals.
Therapy is a safe, respectful, non-judgemental, & professional, in a safe environment.
Open and clear in our collaborative work together.
You will learn about your thinking, feeling and behaviour.
Being real and genuine is very important.
CBT therapy is a process of discovery, as well as learning, removing blocks and much more depending what you want.
Longer term therapy can be used to change deeper mindsets/patterns, overcome past childhood abuse/trauma, reframe core beliefs and your back story.
Working with the fragmented parts of self and the shadow side left over from the childhood is life changing.
Using integrity and intent is very powerful and helps our capacity to change.
Helping you to be who you want to be and freeing yourself is extremely liberating.
