therapy
Whether you have had therapy before or this is your first experience, starting with a new therapist can sometimes feel daunting. In our first session, we will talk about the difficulties or concerns you are currently facing, and I will explain a little about how I work. Together, we can decide how to move forward.
As every situation is different, I will offer recommendations about the length and focus of our work once I have a clearer understanding of your needs.
Please feel free to contact me with a brief description of the issue for which you are seeking therapy. I will then get back to you with a suggestion for arranging our first meeting.
AI tools in therapy
I believe AI can be a helpful tool alongside the therapy I provide. If you are already familiar with using an AI chatbot, we can explore how it might support our work together. For example, I can help you develop practice tasks to use between sessions, based on our shared formulation and the therapeutic approach we are using.
Many people use AI chatbots and virtual assistants for support and guidance with mental health or relationship issues. AI can offer several benefits, such as providing non-judgmental support that is available at any time. However, it also has limitations and should be used with care.
COnsultation
A consultation can take place over one or a few sessions. There is no commitment to ongoing or longer-term work. This option is suitable for those seeking an initial assessment and recommendations on how to manage a mental health–related difficulty.
Brief consultations are not therapy, as they do not allow for an in-depth exploration of the issue or the opportunity to practise new skills.
Please contact me with a brief description of the issue if you would like to arrange a consultation. Let me know if you would like a written report following the consultation.
Reports
I can provide a written report following a consultation or a course of therapy.
Please note that some situations require a specialist document (for example, expert witness reports or specialist ADHD assessments for educational purposes), which I may not be able to provide.
If you require a report, please let me know the purpose and the type of document you need.
