Private Therapy in London: FAQs
What is private therapy?
Private therapy at our London centres is available for anyone wanting to seek support for their mental health. Private therapists working at The Awareness Centre have years of experience providing counselling, psychotherapy, or psychology support to clients and have many areas of specialism. Our experts can offer the safe and confidential space you need for any issue you are looking for support with.
What is the difference between seeing a private therapist and a low-cost therapist?
Our private therapists have had extensive training and are expert in specialist areas of mental health to support our clients’ needs. Our low-cost therapists are coming to the end of their clinical training with The Awareness Centre Training School and other training organisations and are working towards final qualification and registration. They offer therapy sessions at a lower fee. At The Awareness Centre, we are committed to making therapy services accessible to all, regardless of your financial situation.
What are the different types of therapy?
Our therapists work with many different therapy modalities. Depending on your specific concern, they will be able to determine the type of therapy that will provide the best results for you. However, the most important part of therapy is the process and connection between the client and therapist rather than the therapeutic approach.
What type of therapy is best for anxiety or depression?
Most approaches to therapy will support clients experiencing anxiety and/or depression. However, therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and it is important to work with a private therapist who can assess your individual needs. At The Awareness Centre, therapists offer personalised support, recognising that some clients have dealt with anxiety or depression for much of their lives. Our therapists will tailor their therapeutic approach to ensure that you get the right therapy for you.
What kinds of questions will I be asked during a private therapy session?
When it comes to private therapy, there are several different approaches to questioning that a therapist could take. While it will largely depend on your specific concern and the goals you set for your therapy sessions, typical questions you might come across include:
- What do you feel is causing the problem?
- How long have you been experiencing these feelings?
- How does your issue affect your everyday life?
- How would you generally describe your mood?
- What makes you feel more positive?
- Have you had therapy before, and did you find it helpful?
- What are you expecting to gain from therapy?
Is there anything I should not tell my therapist?
There are very few conversation topics off the table in therapy, and at The Awareness Centre, our private therapists work hard to develop and nurture close relationships with every client. After a few sessions, you will likely feel very open about discussing your issues with your therapist, making the process even more valuable to you. One thing we do encourage clients to avoid is apologising for their emotions – quite often, during therapy, clients will worry they are being too emotional or talking too much. This, of course, is not the case – exploring and understanding your emotions is exactly what therapy is about!
