Counselling and psychotherapy in South West London
The terms 'counselling' and 'psychotherapy' are used interchangeably.
Counselling is often short-term work, psychotherapy usually takes place
over a longer period of time.
How long does it take?
Short term counselling, to help you achieve a specific goal, may take
between 6-12 weeks.
Psychotherapy requires a longer term commitment to enable us to work
together at a deeper level.
What will we do?
Although some of our work together may involve talking about what is
currently happening in your life, it may be important to talk about things
that have happened in your past to help understand how this has
impacted on your life today.
Then, together we can consider changes that could lead to
improvements in your life.
