Individual Therapy

I accept adult referrals from individuals and other professionals including  Health Visitors, NHS, Doctors and company Human Resources departments.

​

Following our first contact, often by phone or email, or face to face interview. I will carry out an assessment of you through discussion with you and sometimes using more formal assessment, using Goodman’s strength & difficulties assessment tool. This is usually carried out in my private practise at my home in a comfortable environment (the surrounds include my personal affects) . I will then discuss my findings and recommendations with you and we can together decide whether you’d like to continue with this therapeutic process.

​

Individual therapy means that the sessions can be tailored your exact needs and can take place in a safe environment.
