I am a psychotherapist and counsellor with a private practice in Market Harborough, Leicestershire. I am a senior therapist at the 'Mindtalk' group in Market Harborough, and also provide professional group or individual supervision to other therapists. I work with sensitivity and respect together with you, to offer help in the face of particular problems or the most prolonged and intense difficulties.
Psychotherapy and Counselling can be helpful to ease problems caused by psychological and spiritual pain. It offers a safe and confidential space to explore and reflect on the immediate situation and to make links with what has been experienced in the past.
The difference between counselling and psychotherapy is debateable, but most agree that counselling deals with more immediate problems for a shorter time, while psychotherapy explores more deeply and may take longer. Psychotherapy is also a way to release deeply hidden blocks to gain a new sense of meaning to living. And not least, they both offer the light of hope.
An initial meeting lasts for one hour, in which a history is taken and both client and therapist establish a relationship. If it is appropriate, we agree a plan to go forward with an agreed number of sessions, a regular appointment at the same time each week, and with reviews at regular intervals.
