Personal Psychotherapy
Personal Psychotherapy tends to looks more deeply into who we are and tends to spend the time to bring to light that which is usually unconscious. This process helps us work on how are, how we function, our automatic responses, how we are in the world and what makes a difference to that.
​
With a special focus on women aged 35 years and older, therapy is particularly supportive at this time because it is understood that women's brains are transitioning in a similar way to how it did during puberty and pregnancy (if relevant) but this change can have a bigger effect on a women's personality, needs, wants, feelings, thoughts, desires and future.
Therapy involves counselling techniques and deeper level psychotherapeutic techniques with the aim is to more permanently alter ineffective parts of psychological and emotional functioning and ease the internal struggles. This would result in improved relationship with oneself, with others and more effective coping skills to deal with life in general.
​​
Sometimes the root of an issue needs to be dealt with and psychotherapy involves more interventions, approaches and techniques to facilitate more areas of positive change. This means that there is a lot more chance of the therapy creating more permanent or long lasting positive effect. This can help prevent repeats of the same issues arising further down the line.
