ÌÇÐĹÙÍø

It is understandable that the thought of arranging the first session can feel overwhelming, as you may not be sure what to expect. Many clients often say that this is the 'hardest part', however, there is no right/wrong as to how a therapy session 'ought to be', nor is there any pressure to book further sessions.

I am offering therapeutic support to you, whereby we will work together at your own pace and if you choose to, we can then arrange dates/times which suit both of us.

Sessions can be arranged weekly/fortnightly - depending on your preference. There is never a requirement to pay for multiple sessions up front, payment is kindly required in advance of the session which follows the current one. Pencilling dates in our diaries ensure that we are able to arrange to meet on a regular basis at a time which suits you.

At the moment - I have no personal holidays planned and have some availability, so please feel free to reach out to me.

We can meet via zoom online or arrange a telephone call (£55 for the 50 minute session). I will do my best to accommodate with days/times.

Alternatively, we could use a room in Thame, however, there will be a fee for this, due to the cost of administration/booking the room.

If you are a student, I understand that finances can be an issue and can potentially offer a concessionary reduced fee if we are meeting via zoom/telephone (please feel free to mention this to me).  

Hi, my name is Louise. I am here for you if you would like support to talk things through, as it it can be really hard if you are feeling anxious; overwhelmed or experiencing low mood/depression. Sometimes just feeling heard and understood so that you don't feel so alone or judged, can enable you to make sense of what you are going through so that you feel able to move forward.

I understand personally and professionally, that your thoughts and feelings may affect you physically in a negative way (e.g. presenting as headaches; stomach pains and impacting your sleeping patterns). Therefore, having this time for you to compassionately explore and reflect may provide a healthier outlet for whatever you are holding onto inside.

What are the benefits of starting counselling sessions with me?

I am an Accredited ÌÇÐĹÙÍø Therapist and use an integrative approach so that I can adapt my approach to meet your individual needs. I also have Adlerian training, which means that you have the opportunity to explore early memories; your family of origin and dreams. They enables us to gain a good understanding of how you view yourself and the world, so we can use this insight to help you manage your perceived difficulties.

Special areas of interest

I have experienced anxiety personally and understand how debilitating it can be. Therefore, I undertook further training in Managing Anxiety so that I could support clients who are also struggling to cope with it.

My professional background (Family Planning Nurse/Midwife/Health Visitor) has led to an interest Perinatal support and I subsequently undertook Counselling training with the Oxford Infant-Parent Perinatal Team.

Additional Training includes:

Advanced CBT; Grief and Bereavement; Couples and Family Therapy; Dealing with Depression; Eating Disorder Awareness; PND and ÌÇÐĹÙÍø aligned Online and Telephone Counselling.

How do I work?

I work as an Integrative Counsellor/Psychotherapist which means that I utilise different techniques when working alongside you depending on what you decide to bring to the session.

You will have the time to feel heard and listened to in a safe; confidential space, whereby you won't feel judged and we can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.

To help with getting to the root of your difficulties, I have Adlerian training, which means that we can explore your family of origin; early memories and dreams. They often provides insight into yourself and how you view the world.

Our interpretations are often formed from a young age and this is a time where our sense of belonging and significance is formed. Understanding ourselves better and identifying behaviour patterns can be insightful and useful...as this provides the opportunity to change (if you are feeling 'stuck').

Sometimes, other strategies can be helpful, which is why I have undertaken CBT training.

What do I mean when I say I adopt a holistic approach?

I recognise that we are all unique individuals and therefore, following a 'tick box' approach is not helpful for you.

Working holistically means that I have an awareness that different aspects of our lives contribute to how we feel about ourselves and others.

I come from a Medical background and have also attained a Psychology Degree, therefore, I recognise the mind and body are both important in different ways.

What issues do I work with?

Managing Anxiety and the Pre-conception/Perinatal period are specialist areas of interest (due to my personal and professional background).  

However, I also support clients who are experiencing stress; low self esteem; depression/low mood; bereavement/loss; relationship/family issues.

Our first session together is an opportunity to find out what has brought you to counselling and how we can work together to overcome your perceived difficulties.

It may be that a 'one off' session is all that you would like, or it may be that a number of sessions are agreed between us and then we review how you are experiencing therapy and how you would like to progress.

There is no right/wrong way to have counselling, it is about what works best for you as an individual.

If you would like to have an initial telephone call or a brief zoom meeting that can be arranged.

This is free of charge whereby I can answer any questions you may have about how I work.

Alternatively, you are welcome to book a full 50 minute session, which can be a ‘one off’ (no obligation to continue) or we can book a number of appointments in advance at a time which works for us both.

The time agreed for the next session is reserved in my diary for 48 hours, although only following receipt of the fee via BACS, will your appointment be guaranteed. A zoom link will then be sent through to you.

If payment has not been kindly received 24 hours before the session, I will assume that the appointment is not going ahead and therefore will offer this time to any other interested client.

I work Monday to Thursday, with various session times available (starting at 8.15/8.30am).

You can choose to have 2 x 45 minute sessions; or 1.5 hours monthly - as per ÌÇÐĹÙÍø requirements.

Or, depending on your profession, you may prefer to book a session for an hour.  I will do my upmost to accommodate.

Sessions are £50 for an hour or £75 for 1.5 hours.  

If you are a student or struggling financially, I can offer a reduced rate of £40 per hour or £60 for 1.5 hours (please feel free to discuss this with me).

Hi, my name is Louise and I work as a Qualified Supervisor (and ÌÇÐĹÙÍø Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist) in Thame. 

I am a Certified Online Supervisor - which means that I am equipped to work online/via telephone and am aware of the additional considerations involved.

My Supervision training was based on the 7 eyed model.  This has been beneficial learning for when I am providing Supervision to others and also within my own Counselling practice, because it has helped to really 'see' the client.

As a Therapist, I have undertaken additional training in the following areas:

Anxiety; Advanced CBT; Grief and Bereavement; Couples and Family Therapy; Dealing with Depression; Eating Disorder Awareness; PND; Trauma and the body.

Antenatal/Perinatal support is my 'niche' area of practice, due to Midwifery/Health Visiting experience and Counselling training with the Oxford Infant-Parent Perinatal Service (which included supporting clients who had experienced birth trauma).

Previous experience also includes working in a State Secondary School and Private School - both of which have enabled me to gain further understanding of risk and safeguarding.

How do I work?

I am a ÌÇÐĹÙÍø Accredited Integrative Counsellor/Psychotherapist which is particularly beneficial when providing Supervision (as I have an understanding of different perspectives and incorporate these into my practice).

I work in a Person Centred way and have attained a Diploma in Adlerian Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Adlerian Training is particularly useful when working alongside clients, because we can potentially be creative and explore their early memories; family of origin and dreams.  Within supervision, these aspects enable us to really gain a bigger picture of 'who the client is'.

I also work as a Reflexologist, which has developed my understanding of the mind and body connection.  This enables me to really consider how the client is being affected psychologically and physically.  

Taking this holistic perspective is a helpful way of identifying that all clients are unique individuals and therefore, bearing this in mind, means that we can really 'see the client', while acknowledging that we all have different struggles and coping methods.

Following achieving the Diploma, I have also undertaken CBT training.  This means that I am able to introduce some strategies for managing and coping with difficulties - therefore, if you are CBT trained, I have some understanding of this modality.

How do we plan our future sessions?

At the end of our supervision session, we can plan ahead for the following one.  I will do my best to accommodate, whether that be meeting fortnightly or monthly.  

I understand that life is busy, so if you need to change the day/time for any reason, please let me know as soon as possible and we can reschedule (with at least 24 hours notice so that I could potentially offer this slot to someone else).  Otherwise, full payment for the session will still be required.

How does payment work?

Please transfer the payment via BACS prior to our session together and I can then send the zoom link through to you (prior to our meeting).

I will send my Supervision agreement through to you prior to the first session, so please complete your details as per kindly requested (within the document).  

We can review how our sessions together are going every few months, however, you are most welcome to share any concerns or thoughts with me along the way!  

I would like you to enjoy meeting for supervision and get the most out of it.  Together, we can then make a positive difference to our clients and work safely within the ethical framework.

The session is led by you, however, if you are a student, we need to explore your work with all of your clients.
