Psychotherapy sessions for individuals/couples
Transform your life and improve your relationships with therapeutic support, distress resolution and education during and between your therapy sessions.
At 2nd Opinion Psychotherapy I extend my service to Couples as well as Individuals. You may or may not know the basis of your distress - usually it's the signs and symptoms of it that will compel you to make contact.
Signs and symptoms that are ongoing, worsening and/or cyclic can be:
- inner concern and worry,
- conflict that is worsening and cycling,
- amplified fear,
- inability to sleep,
- dysregulated eating behaviours,
- nightmares,
- repetitive problems and outcomes,
- feeling hopeless and disillusioned,
- irrational or confused thinking,
- feeling disconnected,
- inability to control angry outbursts,
- fear about these outbursts,
- arguments,
- violence,
- feelings of sadness and loneliness,
- general overwhelm.
Because these experiences are all felt in the body, the answer to their treatment also resides in the body.

Focused care, based on...
Human centred care, based on deep understanding of life processes, pain, spiritual psychology and 40 years of training and experience working in the field of suffering, transition and well-being.
Methodologies that have been proven through the work of dedicated medics, researchers and the results enjoyed by my clients.
A strong and articulated focus on your health, and a shift away from endless dialogue and 'strategies' about the ideas of health. We do the work; you enjoy the rewards.
Renewed sense of hope, and more regular experiences of strength and inner authority.
