THERAPIES
Therapy refers to a treatment intended to relieve or heal a disorder. It's easy to see that a person with, say, a lisp can benefit from a speech therapy. It makes sense. Take a programme of carefully selected exercises, repeat them until they are habitual and with conscious application at the outset the problem can be overcome. Similarly it makes sense that a child with low muscle tone, or a teenager struggling with poor posture, or a woman who has suffered a stroke, can benefit from a targeted exercise programme provided by a trained therapist to develop a particular part of the physiology. So it is with the human psyche.
What happens when the forces within you that influence thought, behaviour, choices, actions and personality are blocked? Or, what happens when these forces are habitually directed towards outcomes that are contrary to your healthy living, happiness or life satisfaction? Just as it is with a muscle that is never exercised, or is congenitally unable to perform to its full range, or like a set of body parts trained into a poor habit, so it is with your human mind. And the result is, just as it is with the body: dis-ease. This dis-ease, unfortunately, is harder to see. It is the symptom, whether sudden or persistent, that tells us there is an underlying problem. This symptom can be inside you; perhaps an unwelcome feeling. This symptom might be expressed in your body; maybe you are unable to sleep or you have developed a tic. This symptom might only be reflected back at you by an event in life; an illness, a death, a trauma, a separation.
In these cases, and others like them, seeking a therapist who can offer appropriate treatment to assist, develop, enhance, strengthen or expand the psyche is a practical and sensible life choice. If you are reading this then chances are you fall somewhere into this range. If this is so then send your query on the Contact Form or call the given number. A short telephonic assessment will be scheduled to establish whether therapy is what kind of therapy is most useful for your situation.
Individual Therapy sessions are 50 mins long and begin and end at the pre-arranged time. This firm attention to time management and to the protocols around payment are a fundamental part of the treatment frame. Sessions may be scheduled once a week or more often. Therapy may last for a matter of weeks or longer.
