Therapy can be helpful for anyone as long as they feel like a change. Whether you are hoping to talk about something that has happened to you or you want to explore more generally who you are and how you fit in to the world, therapy can help.

The topic of focus will lead to a place of self exploration. Some people feel some anxiety about not knowing what to say or feeling as though they need to turn up to a therapy session with talking points and a plan. This is not necessary as the format of our sessions will naturally result in us talking about what feels most significant at the time.

Therapy sessions themselves are 50 minutes of talking one to one with me either in a dedicated therapy room in Fulham or online over zoom. Usually, I will begin the session by asking how you are feeling. This leads to the beginning of the session whereby thoughts and feelings may come up that you want to talk about. Therapy throughout the weeks and months takes its own course where pressing things are discovered, explored and worked through in a process. As a result of this trajectory, people often feel more self-assured, less anxious, content and in control.

Starting therapy can be a daunting prospect and many people have doubts that they even need therapy. My advice is that if you are curious about therapy - give it a go. If you aren’t getting what you imagined from it then you can always leave and either find another therapist who might be better suited to you or put a bookmark in therapy until a later date.
