FAQs:
Who is psychotherapy for?
Most people seek psychotherapy in times of crisis, such as mental health problems or illness, relationship problems or the break-up of a relationship, acute depression, anxiety, work stress, bereavement, etc.
Some however also seek psychotherapy for non-crisis issues such as insomnia, procrastination, interpersonal problems.
What is the difference between counselling and psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy can deal with both crisis and non-crisis issues and usually is longer term. Psychotherapists are trained to provide psychotherapy as well as counselling. Counselling is more short-term for symptom relief or a change of a specific behaviour. The major differences however are in the quality of the relationship between practitioner and client and the practitioner’s level of training.
How do I know if a particular psychotherapist is right for me?
In your first session, but also in all subsequent sessions you can ask your therapist any questions related to how they work and their training, their professional memberships as well as their experience.
Most importantly however is how you feel in the session itself. Do you feel comfortable, understood and safe? If not, it might be important to raise your concerns. A good psychotherapist will acknowledge your concerns and work on resolving them. It is very important that your needs and wants, as well as your space and safety are respected.
How many sessions of psychotherapy or counselling will I need?
Counselling is usually short-term and can last anything between 6-8 sessions. For crisis situations or personal psychotherapy it is not possible to estimate how many sessions you will need as every individual has their own individual needs and circumstances. Although some psychotherapists make an estimate, we believe that this is not ethical and undermines your individuality and strength. Ideally you will find the right moment to end psychotherapy together with your therapists to ensure that you are leaving with a positive experience of autonomy and independence. Most therapists offer regular reviews every 5-6 sessions to check how you are doing. It is not in the interest of you or the psychotherapist to encourage therapy longer than necessary.
Psychotherapy can be very challenging and hard work. Your psychotherapist will be supporting you in your journey.
How much does psychotherapy cost?
Psychotherapists at the Centre charge between £35 and £40 per 50 minute session. Some offer a free initial session lasting 30 -50 minutes or an initial session at a lower fee. If you are on low income there is also an option to join our low cost psychotherapy clinic, we do have a waiting list, but will be able to estimate when it is likely that you can start your therapy or counselling.
How regular are psychotherapy sessions?
Psychotherapy sessions are usually weekly, in some cases bi-weekly. We do not recommend less frequent then that as it would not allow for continuity and lead to "playing catch-up", which makes therapy less effective.
Who do I contact if I want to book a session?
