What to expect in a therapy
session
We’ll start by having an
informal chat, you'll be asked what you want and why you
want it - so an understanding can be gained of where
your motivation to change comes from. You may also
be asked about the situation, people, environment and feelings
that may be involved in the change that you want to make.
All sessions are carried
out with complete confidentiality, remember, this is your
time. Trust, honesty and openness from the start make therapy
more effective. Most sessions last approximately
one hour, however you may attend for a free initial consultation
(prior to your first session) if you wish, which will last
for up to twenty minutes.
You can make yourself comfortable either sitting or reclined
and allow yourself to be guided into a relaxed daydream
like state.
There are many techniques that may be used, the ones chosen
will be tailored to your individual needs from the information
you have given earlier.
These may involve recalling memories, describing your thoughts
and feelings, imagining the future, the way you want it
to be. This is a pleasant relaxing experience.
Sometimes it may be beneficial to practice relaxation at
home, or to keep a log or diary between sessions. You will
be advised if this will assist with your specific goal/s.
Sessions generally take place weekly, however this depends on the
individual. Simple problems such as habits or phobias may only require
one or two sessions, whereas more complex problems/goals may take
several or more sessions. Whatever your goal is, the aim is to obtain
results in the least number of sessions.
