Greg's depth approach can be offered shorter-term or longer-term. The style of therapy is mutually agreed and revised session by session to keep the treatment as effective as possible. Sessions pay attention to moment-by-moment feelings, thoughts, concerns, behaviour, values, and relationships.
Greg is informed by many approaches to therapy including the experiential method of Focusing, which encourages clients to value their own felt sense of life issues even when it is difficult to put into words or to understand fully. Staying with a bodily felt sense of a problem, concern, or project, can lead to surprising new steps and creative solutions that would not have come through analytic thinking alone.
Greg's private consulting rooms in Brighton and London are in mixed-use buildings to maximise client confidentiality. Appointments can be offered during weekdays and early evenings; typically Monday, Tuesday, & Wednesday in London, and Thursday & Friday in Brighton. Clients can either refer themselves or be referred by their GP or psychiatrist.
Greg is a recognised specialist provider of psychological services for private healthcare insurance coverage. Clients will need to check with their insurance company to see what psychological support their policy entitles them to and whether they need a GP or psychiatric referral. If you are self-financing you can make contact directly and do not need a referral from another professional.
