Individual therapy
What to expect during counselling
During individual counselling sessions, the therapist will listen to the person’s concerns and help them explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The therapist may ask questions, provide feedback, and offer suggestions for coping with and addressing the person’s issues.
I offer a range of approaches including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Processing (EMDR) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Courses of therapy typically last for 6 or more sessions, depending on what you want to achieve and how quickly progress can be made. Before embarking on counselling, I offer a free 15 minute consultation for us to talk about your goals and concerns, and agree on the approach that's best for you. Contact me to book in a session.
Counselling can be an effective investment in oneself and one’s mental health for several reasons.
First, individual counselling can help people identify and address underlying issues contributing to their mental health concerns. By talking through their experiences and feelings with a therapist, individuals may better understand the root causes of their problems and develop strategies for addressing them.
Second, individual counselling can provide a safe and supportive space for people to express their emotions and work through difficult experiences. Many people find it helpful to have a trained professional to listen to them and provide guidance and support as they navigate challenges.
Third, individual counselling can help people develop coping skills and strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. This can be especially beneficial for people struggling to cope with complex life events or facing ongoing stressors in their lives.
Overall, individual counselling for adults can be a valuable investment in oneself and one’s mental health. It can provide a supportive and safe space to explore and address underlying issues, develop coping skills, and work through difficult experiences.
