Individual
therapy is an opportunity to look at yourself and how you are with the
world in a safe, confidential environment. As a therapist I am there to
facilitate awareness of your options and possible choices in a supportive
way.
The initial consultation is an opportunity for us to discuss your needs
and to make a decision about whether we wish to work together.
If we make the decision to work together then a confidentiality contract
is agreed before the start of the therapy.
The sessions will usually take place in my therapy room in Copthorne and
will last for 50 minutes. Sessions will usually take place on a weekly
basis, the total number of which will depend on your individual requirements.
Couples Therapy
Relationships with others, particularly within marriages and partnerships,
is something we all have problems with at some point in our lives. There
may come a time when the issues appear to be so overwhelming that a solution
seems to be impossible. The ability to relate effectively is of vital
importance to all of us. Couples therapy is an opportunity to discuss
issues such as conflict, family stress, unmet personal and relationship
needs in a 'neutral territory' with an unbiased observer who can provide
feedback and information coupled with confidential and non-judgemental
support.
Sessions usually last 90 minutes and will take place on a weekly basis,
the total number of which will depend on your individual requirements.
Group Therapy
What
is Group Therapy?
A group of people that come together with a Group leader who acts as the
facilitator and provides an environment that is both supportive and challenging.
Transactional analysis was originally practised as a group therapy as
its emphasis has always been on understanding interactions.
What are some
of the advantages of Group Therapy?
Groups generate a social environment in which clients can benefit from
each other’s work, which may then enable them to gain insight or
may trigger other issues for them.
There is also a large financial advantage in Group therapy. The cost of
the sessions will workout to an hourly rate which is a 1/3 to 1/4 of the
cost of individual therapy.
Guided Imagery
Finding a way to relax and escape the stress and
anxieties of life is difficult to do.Guided Imagery gives you a means
of doing that...for the length of the session and also gives you the techniques
to do it for yourself at a later date. During the sessions we make a journey
of self discovery. Sharing as much or as little as we feel comfortable.
I provide a basic, hopefully appealing and relaxing image for you to explore.
I will be your guide but what happens, what route you take and how high
you fly is limited only by your imagination.
If your
curious about meditation, how to start, how it can help you to help yourself,
if you like the idea of learning to ‘fly’, join us.....
The Guided Imagery Group is an open group (not all the same people may
be there every time) and is held in my therapy room in Copthorne.
Past themes have included; the beach, the rainforest, japanese bathtime,
flying, dreamtime and many more.
Workshops
Therapeutic workshops are based on a theme and designed to explore particular
issue connected to the theme. The aim is to explore personal issues within
a group setting in an experiential way. Safety is paramount and Jules
is happy to take time prior to the workshop to discuss how any particular
workshop that appeals to you may be relevant and how it may be of benefit.
The workshops are open to both existing, previous and non clients. (If
non clients, a discussion with Jules prior to the workshop is obligatory).
