Entering the therapy room.
You can begin with something that happened recently, a concern you keep coming back to, or a feeling that is difficult to explain. We may look closely at a particular interaction: what you felt, how you responded or what was difficult to say. I ask questions, offer observations and check my understanding with you as we go.
The work may involve understanding your feelings, making changes, grieving a loss or thinking through a decision. It can also involve finding ways to live with circumstances that cannot simply be resolved.
We can discuss the pace of the work, including when to pause or return to something later. You can question my understanding, and we can talk about anything in our work together that feels difficult or unhelpful.
what we can work on
What is happening now, and what may be shaping it.
CURRENT DIFFICULTIES
- A situation, feeling or relationship is causing distress.
- A loss, decision or change has altered how life feels.
- A familiar response or conflict keeps returning.
- You understand what is happening, but still find it difficult to change how you feel or respond.
PATTERNS AND INFLUENCES
- Patterns that recur across relationships or periods of life.
- Ways you have learned to protect yourself, seek closeness or maintain distance.
- Feelings, needs or conflicts that are difficult to recognise or express.
- Roles, expectations and cultural contexts that shape what you feel able or allowed to do.
CREATIVE METHODS in therapy
Drawing, writing, collages, and digital imagery
Alongside our conversation, I may suggest using a drawing, a piece of writing or an image to explore something more closely. For example, we might use a simple drawing to explore closeness and distance in a relationship, or write an unsent letter to consider what you want to say and what makes it difficult.
We would pay attention to the thoughts and feelings that come up as you work, then discuss what you notice and how it relates to the concern we are exploring. These methods are optional, and you do not need artistic experience.
