INTIAL CONTACT – Please contact me by telephone or by using the contact page on this site. Please tell me something about your difficulties and how best to contact you. I will usually reply within a few days.
FIRST MEETING – If you would like to proceed we will arrange an initial meeting to discuss your difficulties in more detail. This gives you an opportunity to see if you feel comfortable talking to me and for me to assess if I can help you.
ASSESSMENT – A phase of assessment then follows, usually between 2-4 sessions where we look at your difficulties in some depth and your history and relationships.
FORMULATION - The information collected builds a formulation or understanding of how your difficulties have come about and are being maintained. A formulation draws on a range of theories and research providing a framework to understand your current problem or need.
INTERVENTION– Based on the formulation a treatment focus and approach will be suggested. A number of sessions will be agreed which can range from 6 - 24 sessions, depending on the nature of your difficulties.
ENDING – At the end of our work we will consider progress made and think about how you can continue to develop in the future.
Appointments will be offered at Grange therapy.
