Welcome to Chrysalis Therapy (SW)



A therapy service for all; children, adolescents, adults and families

Hi,
I'm thinking that things may be feeling pretty tough for you at the moment and that’s what’s making you consider therapy. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed or unable to cope and it’s having an effect on your academic studies, work, relationships or other aspects of your personal life.  Maybe you’re needing space to talk through difficult feelings or process trauma but don’t want to be a burden or don’t have anyone to talk to.

I can offer you this; I can offer you a non-judgmental space in which we can explore how you’re feeling. I can offer you a warm, compassionate space that will enable you to explore past and current difficulties.  I can offer you a space to think about what you would like to be different and how change could be implemented.  I can offer you the space to be you; the raw, vulnerable, unedited version who needs to be cared for and nurtured.  I can offer you the opportunity for things to be different, patterns to be broken and for the future to feel brighter.

Our work together will be a collaboration based on openness and honesty, with the therapeutic relationship being central to the process. It takes time to build the trust and the early sessions will be working towards this, so that in time you feel able to share the difficulties you’re experiencing.  These early sessions will also enable us to have a think about your goals and expectations for therapy.

I know embarking on therapy can feel daunting and scary, but you’ve taken the first step today and are one step closer to starting the process…

I look forward to hearing from you.
