About Us
Choosing therapy that is most appropriate for you can be difficult, especially if you are not sure what is available and what the therapies are. That is why we request a contact /information form be completed and a trained therapist shall carry out an initial free telephone consultation. Choosing a therapy shall be ‘joint decision’ with your therapist. Your therapist can use their professional experience and training to create a treatment plan with you. Sometimes this might involve working with just one type therapy but it can also involve working with number of therapies or aspects of different therapies as your treatment is person centred and unique to you so that it is most effective.
Here at infinitytherpay4u we provide several different therapies: Cognitive behaviour therapy, Mindfulness, EMDR, Hypnotherapy, Life coaching, Transactional Analysis, anxiety management, stress management.
We provide sessions for adults; however we do have therapists who provide sessions and specialise with children.
