What Will a Counselling and Psychotherapy Session Involve?

Each session will involve working together to explore your beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, thereby facilitating the expansion of your perspective and experimentation with new, mature, and effective ways of living. This process could involve unpacking, reframing or distancing from self-critical attitudes toward yourself, or, for example, processing painful emotions you have long avoided that continue to intrude and affect you in the present.

Therapy enables us to examine what's occurring from a distance, see things in multidimensional terms, and thereby promote the emergence of new syntheses, understandings and solutions. Gradually, you may rethink certain assumptions about yourself, relationships, and the environment and apply these insights. Each session will allow you to examine your world and consider new, more nuanced ways to move forward that support your well-being. 

As you become more aware of yourself and your options for constructive change, you will feel increasingly empowered and equipped to address life's challenges more intentionally and mindfully.

Sessions are available both online and in person in Nottingham and Mansfield.

Online therapy or in-person

Online therapy, usually through Teams, offers the possibility of your appointment being conducted entirely within the comfort of your home. Working online is recommended for those whose location makes in-person sessions difficult, particularly with regard to accessibility, not having to worry about travel arrangements or expenses, or simply preferring to work in a virtual set-up. All of these reasons are perfectly acceptable.

You are also more than welcome to switch to either online or in-person if you feel either setup isn’t quite working for you.
