Counselling & Psychotherapy
in Basingstoke & Online
When we find ourselves in a place where our thoughts, feelings or behaviours are impacting upon our daily lives, counselling and psychotherapy sessions offer an opportunity to understand why this is happening, make positive changes for the better, and move forward to where we want to be.​
What can sessions help with?
There are four key areas that therapy sessions can support you with, these are:
​
-
Difficult emotions - whether you’re struggling with low self-esteem, feeling angry, or confused about things that have happened or are happening in your life.
​
​
-
Mental or physical health challenges - including depression, anxiety or upsetting health conditions/diagnoses.
​
​
-
Upsetting life events - for example, bereavement, relationship breakdown or work-related stresses.
​
​
-
Building self-awareness/identity - this can include exploring challenges around gender or sexual identity, along with other changes in life that lead you to question who you are or what you want from life.

Therapy Style & Approach
Following initial qualification as an Integrative practitioner underpinned by the Clarkson Relational Psychotherapy framework, I’ve subsequently gone on to specialise in two distinct therapeutic disciplines, namely:​
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy - enabling me to work with longer-term clients seeking transformational change and support with deeper rooted, trauma related or life long wellbeing challenges.​
Cognitive, Behavioural and Motivational Therapies - enabling shorter term issue-specific or outcomes focussed therapeutic work including support with phobias, anxiety, workplace or family related stress and anger.
How the Process Works
We’ll approach therapy sessions in three main stages as follows:
Introductory appointment - At our first meeting we’ll talk through how counselling and psychotherapy can help you reach your goals and establish the best way forward.
Weekly sessions - Following our introductory appointment we’ll agree a set time and day for us to meet each week for a 50-minute session. During these sessions, we’ll explore the difficulties you’re currently facing and look at a range of tools, strategies and options to help you get to where you want to be.
Review sessions - At agreed intervals (usually every 4-6 sessions), we’ll look at how sessions are progressing and where you feel you’re at in terms of your goals.
