Through this package I will help you to navigate the challenges of your first steps towards recovery. I will work with you to develop a personalised map of where you are and where you want to be, to identify your goals along the way, and to plan the steps you need to take to reach them.
Once you have found your feet, our sessions will be less frequent, serving as pit stops to check in on your progress and clarify your next steps. I will offer gentle accountability and challenge when you are tempted to give up and dive back under the duvet, or take short-cuts that lead nowhere. At other times I may equally gently remind you that there are no deadlines, no exams, and that it is fine to slow down and give yourself a duvet day. I might bring forward certain sessions that seem most appropriate, or make suggestions for personalised reading, exercises or activities.
You will always be able to slot in a session when you hit the inevitable bumps in the road. Relapses are a part of recovery and essential opportunities to learn. Having trodden this road myself, I know how every stumble and set-back can feel like a disaster. I know the fear of never recovering, as well as the fear of recovery if it means ‘having’ to return to the life that made you ill in the first place. I bring this personal experience to you, with my professional training and expertise, to help you avoid the set-backs as much as possible, and to find the genuine short-cuts to the healthy and fulfilling life you dream of.
* If a 45 minute Zoom call is too much I can divide your time into smaller slots to suit your needs.
** This refers to detailed emails requesting further guidance, rather than to brief emails relating to organising your consultations. Writing these responses can take significant time, which I need to factor into my working day, so I need to place some boundary on this aspect of my work.
