Treatment - Psychotherapy


I offer an integrative approach to psychotherapy that combines ideas from some of the most successful aspects of many forms of psychotherapy and counselling to produce an approach which is both highly effective and relatively quick.

All treatment is carried out privately on a one-to-one basis, in a highly constructive, supportive and non-judgemental environment. Most sessions will last approximately one hour, though if a little extra time is needed then that is not usually a problem. Longer sessions of 90 minutes and 120 minutes are also available. I also offer half day and full day break through sessions.

Because sensitive topics are often discussed during psychotherapy, therapists are expected, and legally bound, to respect client confidentiality.

What can you expect?

All cases are treated individually, so the structure of most sessions and the number of sessions needed will depend on you and your particular issues. However most treatment will follow the following basic steps.

Initial Consultation

The Initial Consulation/Assessment Session usually lasts between 30 minutes to an hour, and during this time we will discuss your particular issues, what you want to gain from the therapy, the options available to you, give you an indication of the number of sessions required and what you can expect during the treatment. After this you can decide whether you wish to continue or not. We will then arrange another appointment for the first session, once you are happy to procede.

Treatment

Stage 1 - First Sessions - Information Gathering/Goal Setting

We start to explore the issues in depth and determine desired outcomes in a highly constructive, supportive and non-judgemental manner. Which is very therapeutic in its own right and also provides valuable information and clues about how to procede in subsequent sessions.

Information gathering and goal setting are really an on-going processes that continues throughout the entire therapeutic process, but a greater proportion of time is devoted to it in the first few sessions.

Stage 2 - Various Dynamic Therapies - Multiple Sessions

The aim is to break down the problem into its different aspects, focus on each aspect to find the underlying causes, help you gain new perspectives, build positive resources and skills, new beliefs, new behaviours, new more positive emotional responses and re-integrate the positive changes.

This is a very iterative process and each session builds apon work carried out in previous sessions.

Almost all sessions will start with gathering feedback about what has been happening since the previous session, goal setting for the current session and information gathering. Then a variety of dynamic processes such as those listed below may be used to help you change.
  • Contemporary Psychotherapy
  • NLP Processes and techniques
  • Timeline Therapy
  • Gestalt Therapy
  • Family Therapy
  • Self Relations Psychotherapy
  • Ericksonian Psychotherapy
  • Counselling
  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
  • Hypnoanalysis
  • Eye Movement Integration (EMI)
  • Accessing the unconscious mind
  • Metaphors and Guided Fantasies
  • Suggestion Therapy
  • Hypnotic Anaesthesia
  • HypnoHealing
  • Tasks (Exercises or tasks to complete between sessions)

 

Stage 3 - Completing the therapy - One or more sessions

At this stage in your therapy you will have made many changes within yourself and the problem should either be substantially reduced to a manageable level or completely gone. The focus of the therapy now changes from working with the problem, to integration of the 'new you' into the rest of your life.

Finally, we tidy up any loose ends and confirm that work is complete.

 

My services can be tailored to your individual or company needs, and range from one to one private therapy or coaching sessions through to group training and workshops.
