Hilary Bateson Registered Member MBACP (Accred)

Welcome to my counselling home page!

I have made this page to help people explore the possibility of counselling for themselves, with more information than just a list of names and addresses. Here's a start...

HOW I WORK

I am trained as a psychodynamic counsellor and this is how I work:

I would offer you an initial assessment session to explore your needs and to see if we both think you will be helped by psychodynamic counselling. If we agreed to move forward with counselling, I would offer you once-weekly 50 minute sessions for

  • individual open-ended work (with no fixed time scale)
  • individual time-limited work (usually 12-15 sessions open to review)
  • work with couples, open-ended or time-limited

Psychodynamic counselling helps clients
  • by offering a reliable and confidential relationship free from the pressures of ordinary life
  • by offering support during times of crisis or transition
  • by deepening awareness of yourself and your relationships
  • by offering a safe place where you can speak about feelings that worry or frighten you
  • by making sense of recurrent problems through exploring their links with the past
  • by challenging tendencies to repeat unhelpful patterns of thought or behaviour
  • by clarifying choices and helping resolve old hurts and conflicts
  • by working with unconscious conflict within the context of the therapeutic relationship

I work in private practice in Hammersmith, London W6

If you would like to take this further, the most helpful way would be for us to speak on the phone. Then I can answer your questions, and we can make any further arrangements.

You can contact me on my personal number O7747 845 202
