The therapy is client-led, so Tierney will work with you on the issues you want to explore. She will help you think about your feelings and take responsibility for your thoughts and actions. Your therapy may be short or long-term, depending on your needs.
The humanistic approach is about free will, self-discovery and achieving your full potential as a human being, rather than concentrating on individual problems or symptoms. It looks at everything that makes you who you are and focuses on you as a unique individual and your relationship with the world around you.It holds that we have the freedom to shape and give meaning to our own lives, and helps clients to regain their independence.
Tierney trained at University or Brighton in Humanistic Psychotherapeutic Counselling, so is very much client-led. She is a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adheres to their code of ethics and practice. She is DBS-checked and fully insured.
