Individual Psychotherapy

Individual Psychotherapy will allow you a space to talk and think about your problems with someone who is trained to help you. The relationship with your therapist is non-judgmental, allowing you to explore troubling feelings or thoughts that you may have been unable to express before.

This type of approach is flexible to your needs and can help in a wide variety of situations, e.g. when:

you feel stressed, anxious, low in confidence or depressedyou are having difficulties with your relationshipsyou feel lonely and isolatedyou have suffered bereavement or traumayou are finding it difficult to cope with problems at home or workyou want to understand yourself better

In your first session, you will discuss your needs together with your therapist and talk about what therapy might offer you.

Coming to this session does not put you under any obligation to start therapy.
