What To Expect?

A relaxed environment which is both empathic, nurturing and gently bringing your awareness higher, yet also is grounded and pushes for change

The First Therapy Session

After the first session, you will have a sense if you feel confident working together. We’ll discuss issues you’d like to work on, and how you’d ideally like to be around them, and maybe a bit of a background of your life story if relevant.  Moreover, you’ll have the opportunity, to ask me any questions about how therapy works.

Before coming it can be helpful to think about the areas you’d like to focus on. The more you share, the better I’ll able to develop an effective treatment plan

The more you give in therapy, the more you get back

What if it doesn’t feel right with the therapist?

Therapy has to feel right. I like to have a bit of an chat with each new client before committing to therapy, just to make sure we’re on the same page. While skills are vital as a therapist, perhaps the most important is the therapeutic relationship.

How long does counselling take?

We can also discuss the options available to you. Short-term counselling, or long-term psychotherapy.

With short-term counselling, generally, 6-10 sessions might be needed. On the other hand, more in depth psychotherapy is begins at around 20 sessions and upwards.

It really depends. And what might start out as short term counselling, it may evolve to longer term psychotherapy. And the opposite is also true.

From our conversation, you’ll have an understanding of which direction you’d like to go in.

Something really stood out about Ronnie so he was one of 3 I spoke with. Firstly I found that some psychologists wouldn't allow me to speak with them, would only let me book in for a session. If I'm entrusting my essence and being to someone I think I should know if I feel I can at least be comfortable with them before I make a decision on if I'll see them.Ronnie gave me a free 20 minute session. He answered all my questions frankly and I felt very comfortable with him. I have a lot to work through with him spanning my lifetime. I can comfortably discuss anything with him without any concerns on what he may think. He's always careful to check how I'm going during a session and the following week how I was after the session so I never feel pressured or just pushed along. Everything is at my pace - not his.He uses a variety of methods to best assist me. He is there FOR me, NOT to push, NOT to judge. I feel we have made great inroads and I cannot recommend him more highly.Review author ★★★★★ Started seeing Ronnie when I was in a low point of my life but after a few sessions.

His friendly approach puts you at ease from your first session, I had never heard of Somatic therapy before and thought it was worth a shot, we have been working together for several months now and the results have been subtle, yet when I look back now we have worked on and resolved some seriously big issues, I had not put time into resolving.
