Information about Counselling Psychology
What Spectrum can offer you.
What happens in therapy and how it works
Guide you through the process of accessing support from me if you choose to do so.

Therapy can be a terrifying prospect for many clients and rightly so. It is not an easy journey and the sunshine does not always come quickly. It may take you to places that are painful, dark, depressing, and despairing. It can seem grey and bleak for some of the time and feel as though your are going backwards not forwards.

But if you can find the courage to face this darkness then there is hope that from it you will find a spectrum of colourful emotions, of joy, hope, happiness, laughter, sadness, guilt, anger, love, excitement, jealousy........a rainbow of emotions where the sun and the clouds can exist together in a place where life seems more prosperous and fulfilling.

What Now?

You may have many questions and concerns about counselling that may put you off starting.

How does it work? Is counselling is the right thing for me? Will I be tied into a fixed contract I can’t get out of?

Please don’t panic!

We take things one step at a time, at your pace, and there is never any obligation to commit at any time. You have autonomy to leave as much as you do to start this process. Follow the guidelines below and hopefully together we can help find solutions to your problems.

TAKE IT ONE STEP AT A TIME

Step 1 Find out more about myself and how I practice and have a look around my website to see if you 'feel' I may be the right person for you. Trust your instinct!

At no point are you obliged to continue working with me. It is important you feel you have control of this process and have the autonomy at any point to withdraw. Have a look at the therapy agreement to get an idea of how things will work.

Step 2 Make contact with me in a way you feel most comfortable. Some people want to remain somewhat anonymous through an email, some want to head straight into booking an assessment session and start talking then, others may just want a casual chat with me first to just get a feel of things. Contact me and we can take it from there.

Step 3 When you feel ready we will arrange a time and date to do an initial assessment. This will be longer than a normal session so that we can complete paperwork and gives us both the opportunity to understand what is going on for you. It also gives us both the chance to get to know each other and decide if it feels counselling is the right thing for you at this time.

Again at this stage there is no obligation to continue. You may feel it is not the right time for you yet. You may choose to meet a number of counsellors until you find the right match for you. This is ok as it is important for us that you get the right help for you when you are ready to embrace it.

Step 4 We agree to work together and establish a regular day and time of the week for you to come for 50 minute sessions. I do not set a limit on how long we work together as this is not possible to measure.

Still not sure?

Please have a read of the agreements below to get further details about the process of counselling. If you still have any questions do use the contact form or email me.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Julie has supported me through a number of complex and traumatic events over the past five years.

She has created a warm and safe environment where I felt able to speak freely, without the fear of being judged.

Julie has helped me develop resilience and tools to cope as I move on in my life.
I will always be deeply grateful for her patience and hard work.

Thankyou!

2018

I came to you back late last year when my life was at its lowest point ever and I was in a very dark place with my feelings and thoughts.

We spent almost 6 months working together and I feel you've really helped turned my life around. Not only to get me out of that dark place but to help me realise what people think of me doesn't matter until I can recognise how I feel about myself.

You gave me the power, knowledge and tools to protect myself from others with the invisible bubble. It works it really does and I'm still using it now.

My life is very much back on track,
I can now control who and what I want to affect me and who l let in and who l dont.

Thank you so much for your time and effort with me you really have helped me when l could not see any light at the end of the tunnel.

I will most definitely be recommending you to anyone I know or see who could benefit from your sessions.

Many many thanks Julie
