What to Expect

Your first appointment is generally a discussion about what you are wanting help with, as well as your current situation and your history. Some helpful tools or strategies are generally identified within the initial session. 

If you decide to attend further sessions, these can be scheduled on a weekly, fortnighly or monthly basis or booked as required. 

Therapy sessions provide a confidential space for you to gain new insights into the behaviour of yourself and of others, to learn new ways to respond to stressors and Life challenges, to clarify what matters to you and to work towards short-term and long -term goals.  

 Style of Therapy

I utilise a Client-Centred, Solutions-Focused approach based on elements of the following Therapies:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) & Focused ACT (FACT)
• Mind- Body/ Integrative Psychological Therapy

      These are active therapeutic interventions aimed at helping people make Life changes. Clients learn to manage unhelpful thoughts, painful emotions, and other difficult experiences and they find ways of coping with challenging situations so that  they can move their lives forward encompassing personal values and in the direction of their achieving goals. 

"We cannot sove our problems with the same thinking we used to create them" - Albert Einstein 

What is CBT ?

Psychological Therapy 

Psychological/ Psychiatric Assessments are generally the initial part of working with a Psychological Therapist. This may involve a full assessment interview and it is sometimes helpful for us to administer questionnaires as the results are helpful when added to all of the information from the client. 

Mental Health Nurses or Psychiatric Nurses as part of their skillset, are trained in the assessment and management of psychological difficulties. 

This initial assessment gives you, the client, a chance to see how you feel talking with this person and if you feel comfortable proceeding with the therapy sessions.
