What to expect:​​
​
Sessions 1-2 are typically assessment sessions, where we get to know each other, and explore what brings you here in a supportive and non-judgmental space. We’ll talk about your current challenges, relevant background, and hopes for therapy. This helps me understand your unique experiences and together we develop an understanding of what keeps certain cycles going. We will also explore what your therapy goals are, so I can tailor our work together in a way that best supports you.​​
​
If we are working with EMDR, the structure may differ as it can involve a more in-depth history taking process, and identifying specific memories or experiences for reprocessing. We will also spend time developing resources that you can use to feel grounded and other techniques that may be of use prior to the deeper processing work.
​
If after the assessment session(s), I feel that another type of therapy may be a better fit for your needs or goals, I’ll discuss this with you. What’s most important is that you receive the right support for you.
​
Session length and duration:
I will usually suggest 6-12, or12-20 sessions for psychotherapy, or 20-40 sessions for eating difficulties, PTSD and complex trauma.
Sessions can be agreed for short-term (6-12 sessions on average), this will be a focused piece of work, usually looking at one particular area/ issue.
Sessions are typically weekly or fortnightly, but we will discuss what works best for you at this time.
One-off check-ins can be arranged after a course of therapy is completed.
​
Equine Therapy sessions may be offered as a one-off option to focus on skills building and mindfulness, or for a block of session as with psychotherapy.
Session length and duration will be discussed in the first session.
​
I also offer one-off sessions in mindfulness, which are available to view on the booking page of the website.
​
Group therapy is a beneficial option, as it is more financially viable, but also offers the important opportunity to connect with others in the group. Group numbers are kept small to allow for learning and reflection within the group. Please get in touch to discuss group dates that might be coming up, or keep an eye on the booking page/ social media.
