About JG Talk Therapy
Welcome
Hi. I am Julie, and to reassure you, I am a qualified humanistic counsellor (BSc/Clinical Diploma), and registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psycotherapists (BACP).
Counselling is also known as talk therapy. Some people can find it hard to share their problems and concerns with family and friends, for many reasons. Talking through your difficulties with a trained, impartial and fully present listener can raise your self-awareness, helping you to gain clarity and perspective and therefore a feeling of being more in control.
My journey into this field of work has been via training and development roles within a corporate setting, both in UK and in Europe. I have always had a passion for assisting individuals in recognising and then realising their full potential. I find that the humanistic approach aligns well with this passion: the core belief being that most people seeking therapy, through significant life events or from a difficult past, have lost their sense of self, their self-agency, their worth, and that finding that inner belief and autonomy, is the path to lasting change, growth and fulfilment.
Empowering You to EMBRACE YOUR AUTONOMY
What can I assist you with?
I have experience of working with anxiety, depression, bereavement and loss, and significant life changes such as divorce, retirement, empty nest syndrome, and cancer diagnosis, but you also may not be sure about what it is you need exactly, just a feeling that something's not quite right, a need for clarity.
How do I work?
I work face-to-face using elements of the 3 modalities of humanistic counselling. This includes person-centred, transactional analysis and gestalt techniques. My counselling practice is about establishing a trusting relationship where we can work together in gently identifying potentially outdated patterns of behaviour or past wounds that may be holding you back from embracing a full and meaningful life. I will always try to work at your pace whilst ensuring that we are practising therapy and not just having a chat, although emotional support will always be there for you.
Who do I work with?
I work with individual adults of any age. Currently I only offer face-to-face sessions at lovely rooms in Chiswick. I can offer short term or long term work.
What are my fees?
My fees are currently £60 per 50 minute session payable by BACS in advance of the session. I would anticipate an initial 6 week programme that we will then review to see if longer term work would be beneficial. We will then review every 4 weeks.
