Anxiety can feel like living in a whirlwind where it it takes so much strength and courage to manage each day and the idea of researching what therapy model might help you feels like one job too many.
The short answer to the the questions above is ‘YES’ and the longer answer is that there are no universal panaceas there is nothing that works for everyone. This four step approach is my answer to this, it is all about finding the approach that works best for you.
A Personalised Approach
This plan is highly personalised to suit each individual. I understand that everyone’s experience with anxiety is unique, and so our sessions will differ to meet your specific needs. We will link at hypnotherapy, mindfulness and the solution focused approach and see what suits you best.
This includes the number of sessions too, whether you require fewer sessions or more, we will decide together based on what works best for you. As you will see in the ‘Anxiety” section above I have described a four session approach as that is around the average number of sessions people have with me for anxiety.
Your journey to finding inner calm is unique, and I am here to support you every step of the way. A little about me, I am a very experienced therapist, and I also teach these therapy models. I am fully qualified and insured and committed to providing the best care possible.
In my therapy room, I use evidence-based methods and I have added a few references below if you’d like to do some further reading. My approach is compassionate and client-centered, focusing on what works best for you.
