Frequently Asked Questions
How long might Individual Counselling take?
Is online Relationship Therapy effective?
Yes, online couple counselling can be just as effective as in-person sessions. It offers convenience and flexibility, allowing couples to engage in therapy from the comfort of their own home. There are a few extra considerations to explore to ensure it is effective e.g. ensuring any children are not in earshot or nearby, and agreeing what happens if one of the couple is not present or online.
What issues do you treat in your Wokingham therapy practice?
What is your approach to Individual Counselling?
I’m a registered Integrative Counsellor and Therapist who combines several approaches – Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, person-centred, and existential therapy – tailoring them to each client’s needs. While CBT provides helpful structure and practical tools, I complement it with psychodynamic techniques to explore root causes and attachment patterns. My practice also incorporates solution-focused methods and DBT elements to develop meaningful goals and improve distress tolerance, creating a comprehensive approach that addresses immediate concerns and deeper underlying issues.
How is Coaching different from Individual Counselling?
Coaching helps achieve future goals through action and guidance. Therapy/counselling focuses on resolving emotional issues and improving mental health through exploration and support. Coaching is typically shorter-term and goal-oriented, while therapy often involves deeper exploration over a longer period.
Do both partners need to attend Relationship Therapy?
Ideally, yes; however, there are instances when I meet with one partner (or both individually) as part of the overall work. This tends to be infrequent and serves to explore deeper individual issues that may be affecting the relationship.
