Becoming an adult can bring exciting new potentials and a growing sense of independence. However, it can also bring up lots of new questions about identity and society expectations.

 

This time can also coincide with leaving the parental home, beginning life as a university student, or starting employment.

​

Questions such as 'Can I actually do this?' 'What if I am not ready?' 'Why does everyone else look so sorted? ' can come up. Sometimes feelings of panic or lacking motivation seem to come out of nowhere. Sometimes ongoing anxiety just increases.

 

At times, difficult relationship patterns show up and dynamics with parents or peers can be hard. Occasionally, early experiences that have not been effectively processed can resurface that prevents feelings of safety and confidence. For some young adults, adulthood can be an overwhelming experience with lots of self doubt.

 

But it does not have to stay like that.

 

Seeking therapy for the first time may feel unfamiliar and daunting. Or maybe you've had therapy in the past and wondering if it is worth trying again. These feelings are all very natural yet at different stages of our life, we all could benefit from guidance from someone outside of their family, friendships or romantic relationship. Someone who has a professional understanding of what you may be going through.

How It Works:

​

PHONE CALL. We would begin with a brief conversation 10-15 minutes, no fee. 

​

MEETING. If I think I can work with you and you with me, we would book in 1 session. This can be on-line, in person or hybrid. Depending on availability the session lasts 1 hour (£65) or 50 minutes (£60).

​

BLOCK OF SESSIONS. If we both agree that we would like to continue working together you can book in a block of weekly sessions. This is usually 6, to give us time to explore the core issues and get to know each other. It also helps me consider what might be the best approach for you. After this we review tougher and you can book in another block. The sessions last 50 minutes (£60 ).

​

ON-GOING. I work on a block-to-block basis so we can keep track of how the therapy is going for you and if it is helping. Sometimes people have therapy short term (6-12 weeks) and sometimes they prefer longer (6-24 months) or open-ended.
