What is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy, like counselling is one of the ’talking therapies’. It provides an opportunity to talk in confidence at a regular time, in a private setting.
It provides a professional relationship within which difficult and often painful emotions, dilemmas and experiences can be usefully explored. It aims to increase self knowledge and the capacity for choice.
Integrative therapy, which I practice, is based on the philosophy that we all have a capacity for growth, for finding our own voice. It is also concerned with how our emotional development as children is influencing us in the present.
Understanding how we are repeating patterns which are no longer serving us well, can free us to feel less driven or hopeless and more in control of our lives. As a psychotherapist I aim to provide a secure atmosphere which facilitates this kind of personal exploration.
Many different kinds of people seek psychotherapy for many different reason from a current crisis, to pervasive feelings of unhappiness or lack of meaning. They are often baffled by why they feel or act the way they do. What they share is the courage to face their difficulties.
