Long-Term Psychotherapy

This way of working is structured around regular sessions over an extended period, with attention to what emerges within and across sessions.Rather than following a fixed agenda, the work develops through sustained attention to emotional experience, relational patterns, and what becomes most important over time.

The focus is held rather than predetermined, allowing meaning and understanding to develop gradually.

Many emotional and relational patterns are formed and maintained within relationships and across time.

A longer-term process allows these patterns to become visible as they arise in real time, including within the therapeutic relationship itself.

Change often occurs through ongoing recognition, reflection, and emotional experience, rather than through brief or directive interventions.

Schema Therapy and EMDR are integrated within this longer-term psychotherapy framework where clinically appropriate. These approaches are used in response to what is emerging in the work, rather than as separate or pre-defined techniques. 

This way of working may be appropriate for people experiencing longstanding emotional or relational patterns who are interested in a slower, depth-oriented therapeutic process.
