WHY DO COUNSELLING &PSYCHOTHERAPY
About Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counselling and psychotherapy are a way of becoming more aware and in tune with your experiences as they unfold from moment to moment. This allows you to develop a different set of experiences and so a more fulfilling way of being in the world.
It offers you a safe and confidential space to explore what is going on for you, without the risk of being judged or criticised for what you say, how you feel or who you are.
A fully accredited therapist is one who has completed all of the required 550 hours of client work and has more experience. This means their rate is slightly higher.

The therapists
WHO CAN PROVIDE THIS?
Geraldine Walsh
I'm an integrative psychotherapist. This means that I have trained in various psychotherapeutic approaches. I tailor my sessions dependant on how you like to work and I use an approach that suits your needs. For example: choice theory, reality therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, rogerian, gestalt, to name a few. These approaches can also be used in an integrated way. I use various measurement and feedback forms to ensure our work together is productive.
Ursula helped me to explore boundaries that I have with people specifically in terms of doing things that I want to do and where I am going with my life rather than relying on what others tell me I should or should not do. This has helped me considerably to start living in the “present “and panic less about the future.
The therapy also shed light on why I am angry and with whom. Now I am aware and at least whilst I have still have some anger I continue to work on it and accept things that are not within my control. I feel stronger too and I have also learned not to take other people’s opinion on board. Working with Ursula has been a very positive experience.

I started my sessions with Ursula about 18 months ago and previously I had been with another person with whom I didn’t find any benefit. Starting with Ursula has been the best choice I could do in my life. I am very happy with the improvements I have and continue to have in my social and private relationships, I feel more confident in myself and stronger. I changed my attitude and the people around me have changed as well. Now I can easily manage situations that before made me down and depressed.
Ursula is a very good therapist, with her professionalism and smile she is able to give you the right words to encourage a good mood and very positive energy.

“I had therapy with Ursula some time ago. While I was with her, I felt at ease straight away and completely relaxed – she was so easy to talk to. Since being with Ursula I have progressed with my life, having more self belief, more confidence and above all more coping skills which combined have given me the will to continue with my own self growth.
I would highly recommend Ursula.”

WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Content of a session
The initial session is a bit different from any other, as we will be meeting each other for the first time. We will use this opportunity in part to just get a sense of each other to see if we are a right fit, while also having the chance to find out more information. For example, I might ask you why you have decided to come to counselling, why have you come now, what are you looking for and what are your expectations. You will also have the chance to ask me any questions you might have. How long this initial process will take changes from person to person but at some point in the session we will begin the process of counselling and take it from there.
At the beginning of each session I will check in with you about how you are and ask you what you would like to use the session for. Often I continue to work from where we ended the last session, but this doesn’t always happen, particularly if something more pressing has happened in the time since the last session. The majority of each session is made up of an exploration of your experience, in an attempt to generate awareness, gain insight and develop a richer understanding of who you are.
Sessions usually end with another check in about how you are and an agreement to try and do one (or more) things between now and the next session.
Initial session is 90 minutes long and follow up sessions are 60 minutes.
We can assist you if required to get your zoom sessions set up also.
