Therapy Sessions
Adam’s approach to counselling is grounded in the theory and practice of modern Gestalt psychotherapy. The gestalt approach to counselling is holistic and places a strong emphasis on working in the here and now, meaning you don’t have to dredge up the nitty-gritty details of unpleasant or traumatic events in your life.
Together, we work with how these challenges are still affecting you today and explore the unhelpful ways that past patterns get in the way of the life you want to be living and the person who you want to be. Gestalt is a somatic form of therapy that works closely with the body and its non verbal signals such as body language, tone of voice, posture and gestures. These are explored as part of the therapeutic process. Gestalt also places a strong emphasis on creating a safe, trusting and welcoming therapeutic space for you to share any challenging emotions, thoughts and other concerns you may have.
This form of counselling is trauma informed and is suitable for people struggling with sypmtoms of PTSD, whether that is recent or from the past. It can work alongside any existing psychological support you may have in place.
