Psychotherapy & Counselling: What To Expect

What I will do for you:

help you feel better after every session.
quickly help with anxiety problems and teach you to relax deeply
quickly help with trauma (PTSD) or fear related symptoms
give advice if needed or asked for
not use jargon or 'psychobabble' or tell you that counselling or psychotherapy has to be 'painful'
not dwell unduly on the past, and help you design a more desired future
be supportive when difficult feelings emerge, but will not encourage you to get emotional beyond the normal need to 'let go' of any bottled up feelings
may assist you to develop your social skills so that your needs for affection, friendship, fun, intimacy, connection to the wider community etc. can be better fulfilled
help you to draw and build on your own resources (which may prove greater than you thought)
be considerate of the effects of counselling on the people close to you
help you think about your problems in new and more empowering ways
use a wide range of techniques as appropriate
may ask you to do things between sessions to enhance your therapy journey
take as few sessions as possible
