Here and now therapy

We provide a safe nurturing therapeutic environment for you to work through problems such as anxiety and depression, grief and loss, relationships, isolation and addictions. This environment allows you to discover your true self, build on your natural resources, develop improved self esteem, and experience non-judgemental support.

The underlying reason many people come to therapy is that they are suffering from trauma, grief and loss , or they are unhappy with aspects of their lives and/or relationships. The way we automatically behave and react when we are with others is something we have learned throughout our lifetime, and it can feel as if it is a fixed, unchangeable part of ourselves. Sometimes we experience undesired and unhappy outcomes and don't know why.

These often unconscious behaviours or patterns tend to occur in all our relationships, and so they also arise in the here and now of the therapeutic relationship. 

Research has shown that the relationship between therapist and client is the most important factor in achieving desired outcomes in therapy. 

In Here and Now therapy we endeavour to co-create a trusting therapeutic relationship with you in a way that allows your issues and blocks to manifest directly HERE in the therapy room and NOW in the therapy session. This applies to both individual counselling and group therapy.

By focussing on these as they arise in therapy, you can fully experience and make meaning of the underlying roots of your problems. This will help you to practise new ways of relating in the safety of therapy, and then translate these skills into new behaviours with others in your lives.
