** I charge £125 for couples and £110 for individuals, for a 50 minute session. ** I offer evidence-based therapy and coaching, drawing on the latest research into what works - for couples and individuals. Whatever issues you are facing, my aim is to help relieve your distress in the most effective way possible. I do that by drawing on approaches that are backed by decades of research. What type of therapy will work best for you depends on what sort of problem you need help with. No two people are the same and certain approaches suit some people and some problems better than others. Getting the right help at the right time can change your life. Therapy: Talking about yourself in therapy can be hard. I will try to make it as comfortable as possible. We’ll start by getting an idea of what you’re finding difficult and how this is affecting you. I’ll explain a bit about therapy and how it might help. Some people start with clear ideas about their problems, others are less clear. Either way is fine. Some issues can be managed in just a few sessions. Other times you might need ongoing help to manage complex or persistent problems. I have trained in a range of psychological therapies for example, CBT, attachment theory and positive psychology, which allows me to come at issues with an open mind and provide support which is tailored to you. The type of therapy I practice draws on recent developments in decades of research and I focus on approaches which are practical, solution-focussed and generate lasting change. Coaching: Psychologically-informed coaching helps you develop self-awareness and insight to work out what keeps you from what you want to achieve. As well as clarifying your aims and ambitions, psychologically informed coaching provides you with the tools you need to navigate the challenges of work and life. It also helps you understand what is blocking you and how to overcome it. Coaching generally works best for well-defined problems and is focused more on attaining goals and achieving personal fulfilment. Coaching is somewhere you can drop your ‘game face’. Being able to be honest and open about your challenges is often the first step to overcoming them. Coaching helps you make sense of the issues you face, identify options to address them, and develop and implement a plan of action. Recent studies suggests coaching is a very effective method of achieving change. You can book and pay for therapy or coaching sessions via my website: matwotton.com
