About me and my therapy practice
I prefer to work in 6-week blocks and provide a 'Buy 5, Get One Free' plan. (Full, no-quibble, proportional refund of unused sessions)
I work in a specific way which includes asking you to complete a life history form and psychometric test to guage your mood prior to psychotherapy. I then look at your personal life history with you. We also work from Mind Over Mood, Greenberger and Padesky, 2nd Edition.
