Cognitive Emotive Narrative Therapy, for emotional, behavioural and relationship problems Monthly sessions in North Bridge ~~~
~~~ Introduction
Do you feel unhappy about any aspect of your life? Are you feeling emotionally miserable, or acting in ways that damage your own interests? Do you feel an urgent and desperate need for help with your problems? ♣ Are you looking for help with emotional, behavioural or relationship problems? ♣ Do you feel angry, anxious, stressed or depressed? ♣ Are you feeling miserable about the problems in your life? If you answered yes to any of those questions, then I can help you. ~~~
~~~ Who am I, and what do I offer? My name is Dr Jim Byrne. I am a Doctor of Counselling. Over the period since 1998, I have helped more than 650 people to get over their problems of anger, anxiety, rage, depression, stress, panic attacks, low self-esteem, poor self confidence, and/or relationship problems including couple conflict. My clients find that they can get over their urgent and immediate problems in just three or four sessions with me. Of course, some clients need more time than that, especially if they have multiple problems. (See the 'Unsolicited Client Testimonials' page***).
Our meetings would be in a private room at the Barceló Edinburgh Carlton Hotel, North Bridge, Edinburgh EH1 1SD, which is a two minute walk from Waverley Railway Station. Because I am only in Edinburgh once each month, and because of the high overhead costs, it is necessary to book a triple session - which is three times 45 minute sessions, at £175 per session. Thus the total cost to you would be £525 per month. This fee must be paid into the ABC bank account and cleared seven days before the appointment is due to take place. I am a fully trained and accredited cognitive-emotive-narrative therapist (REBT/CBT/CENT). (See the 'Accreditation and Ethics' page***). I offer general counselling help with emotional, behavioural and relationship difficulties; and also in seven areas of specialism***. I provide a unique form of ‘talk therapy', or cognitive counselling (including elements of CBT), which combines the best systems of effective thinking, re-deciding, re-parenting, psychological education, social skills training, and emotional support. This system is called Cognitive Emotive Narrative Therapy, or CENT counselling.
A standard counselling/therapy session in Edinburgh is a 135 minute conversation, which is confidential between us. (I would never breach my pledge of confidentiality, unless a client told me they planned to commit a serious crime, and that has never happened in more than thirteen years of doing this work). During those sessions, through a process of discussion, debate and direct teaching/training/coaching/counselling, I use Cognitive Emotive Narrative Therapy (CENT) to help my clients to feel better; to act better; to think better; and to function better in their home and work relationships and performances. ~~~ ~~~ What will you get? If you come to see me, I will help you to reframe your problems - to look at them and think about them differently - so that they look and feel more manageable, easier to solve; and less distressing or difficult. I will introduce you to new ways of thinking/feeling about your unresolved problems in life, including early childhood problems, or problems from later stages in your life; and I will help you to feel better about who you are and how you behave and perform in the world.
If you are angry, anxious or depressed, you can expect to reduce the intensity of those emotions to a more reasonable level; which will improve how you feel; how you act; and the general quality of your life. Happiness can return to your life. If you are struggling with conflict or disturbances in your relationships, you can expect to learn how to manage effective relationships for productive outcomes. If you are struggling with practical problems in your life, you can expect to gain the skills to plan and implement your goals more effectively. ~~~ Fees Because I am only in Edinburgh once each month, and because of the high overhead costs, it is necessary to book a triple session - which is three times 45 minute sessions, at £175 per session. Thus the total cost to you would be £525 per month. This fee must be paid into the ABC bank account and cleared seven days before the appointment is due to take place. You can reduce your average fee significantly, if you also sign up for telephone counselling, because telephone counselling is much less expensive.
