Welcome to Merritt-Jones Psychotherapy

Katie Merritt-Jones

  

I’m a Swansea-based trainee integrative psychotherapist studying at the Welsh Psychotherapy Institute and registered with the UK Council for Psychotherapists (UKCP)

Why Psychotherapy?

 Some know precisely why they seek therapy – a bereavement, dissatisfaction in relationships or other challenges. For others the reasons are less clear – a feeling of being stuck in a rut or of general discontentment, perhaps. Whatever your reasons for considering therapy, it may be beneficial to know that it is an evidence-based approach to treating symptoms like anxiety and depression, as well as an ideal site for reflecting on  memories, experiences and hopes. Psychotherapy is a space for exploring the past's influence on life in the here and now - it's a process of exploration that can be challenging as well as joyful and rewarding.

What to Expect

 You can expect a welcoming and confidential environment to explore whatever you wish to bring. 

Our first consultation is where we can discuss your expectations and what you hope to get from psychotherapy. If you decide to proceed, we will meet weekly (unless agreed otherwise) at the same time on an agreed day. Each therapy session lasts 50 minutes and costs £40. I offer concessions to precariously employed, low or unwaged people; please ask for more details.

Counselling and Psychotherapy Swansea FAQs

Each session lasts 50 minutes and costs £40; concessions available. I endeavour to make psychotherapy sustainable and if circumstances change during the course of the therapy, fees can be renegotiated.
