Jenny McClymont (Accred) - 362336*

 Hello and Welcome

I have over 24 years’ experience working with and supporting adults and young people in a variety of professional settings. My psychotherapy and counselling practice is based in Purley, Croydon and South East London.

How I work therapeutically

As a therapist, I typically work therapeutically by building rapport, conducting an initial assessment, developing a treatment plan, providing emotional support and empathy, active listening, and reflection, applying evidence-based interventions, challenging negative beliefs and behaviours, promoting self-reflection and insight, monitoring your progress, and offering recommendations for ongoing self-care and support. The therapeutic process can vary depending on the theoretical orientation employed, your specific needs, and the nature of the concerns being addressed. The relationship between myself and you is a collaborative one, focusing on your well-being and growth.

Our first session

This is an opportunity for us to meet one another and assess whether we feel comfortable working together. This will be an assessment session in which I will collect some personal information, explain how counselling or therapy works, and discuss what you want to achieve from the sessions. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
