How long will it take?

Short term - what's possible

 

We can support you to address recent or current issues around excessive drug and alcohol consumption. This will usually focus on practical ways to help maintain a healthier relationship with alcohol and drugs.

 

Long term- underlying issues

 

A longer period of therapy looking at issues that have resulted in alcohol being a strategy for managing life in general.

 

It’s our aim to help you decide what suits you, the way you think, the way you feel, what you want to achieve.

Alcohol Case history

Ruth is 35yrs old, married and works in London.

Ruth started counselling with me as she wanted to reduce her drinking. During our first meetings, it became apparent that she had had to make difficult choices due to her increasing dependency on alcohol. She had been through various rehabilitation programmes and was pleased with what she had achieved so far. She had been seeing a therapist for a long time who had to end their work due to health problems.

Drug case history

Helen is 54 years old. Her son who could become abusive when under the influence of alcohol or drugs had moved out. Initially she felt relieved as the uncertainty of what to expect when she came home had been removed. However she then realised how lonely she felt and that she started blaming herself for the breakdown of the relationship with her son.
