THERAPY PROCESS
You are in control
Collaboration is key to our process. You are in control and we work with what you bring. My role as therapist is to guide you non-judgmentally with empathy and to provide a safe space.
Three step framework
The therapeutic process is build on our therapeutic relationship which starts from the very first point of contact. I use a three step framework to guide our process, which I developed through research and during training:
Understand
Understand focuses on understanding your world and the presenting issue(s) as part of it. We might draw on different psychological concepts to gain insight and understanding.
Create
This allows us to create new meaning and knowledge of the presenting issue(s) and we can create new ways of thinking and feeling, new connections to self and others. A range of therapy tools support this second step.
Integrate
Successful therapy integrates insights and new ways of being so that we can move towards greater wellbeing and live freely with ease and contentment.
I use this framework for short- or long-term therapy. The length of therapy, short or long, is set by you. You will know when you are ready to leave therapy - when you are free.
