INTRODUCTIONS

Nicola Creed-Curneen

Member BACP, Accredited Member BABCP

 

Often at some point our lives can become stressful, and we can encounter emotional difficulties. We then struggle to make sense of what is happening to us. It is important to recognise early signs, that you are perhaps not feeling yourself. Indeed, if left unresolved these difficulties can quickly impact on all areas of our lives; work, relationships and our wellbeing.

 

I am a professional, and am a member of the following leading bodies.

WHAT WE OFFER

My goal is to provide you with an opportunity to explore your difficulties, your fears, anxieties, hopes or aspirations,  in a confidential and non-judgemental space.

 

I have worked with a wide variety of issues including; depression, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, stress, PTSD, OCD, trauma and birth anxiety. I can offer short and long-term therapy to young people and adults.

 

How does therapy work and what to expect:

 

Within individual sessions we will look at understanding how your problems have developed and what is maintaining them. We will set some short and long term goals for therapy, there will be out of sessions tasks, to help you implement changes into your life.


Within CBT, we can look at how negative thought patterns maybe affecting your mood and assist you to learn new adaptive ways to make positive changes in your thoughts and behaviours.

 

If you are unsure therapy is right for you; then please do get in touch. If you decide to go ahead you can expect;

A free brief initial consultation, usually by phone 10-15 minutes.  
We can briefly discuss your difficulties and decide if therapy is appropriate. From here we can look at booking an assessment appointment.

An assessment appointment, usually 50-75 minutes.

Within the assessment we will look in detail at your presenting difficulties, including your personal history. From here we can discuss treatment options, and answer any questions regarding treatment, session numbers, timings and costs. A brief therapy contract will also be completed.

Individual or couple sessions, weekly usually 50 minutes.  

These will follow the assessment where an agreed number of sessions and costs will have been decided. Individual sessions will include regular reviews to ensure focus and progress.

What is Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)…

 

CBT is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by changing the way you think and behave. Most commonly known to treat anxiety and depression, however it has been evidenced as being useful to treat lots of other mental and physical health difficulties.
