Storyworks Groups

Since lockdown I have had many new clients that I have only ever met and helped via live video-link. Being slightly sceptical at first I have been amazed at the level of intimacy and ease these platforms affords to the work. It may be that for clients, being in their own home helps them to relax into the work, and the physical remoteness gives a freedom to expression that might sometimes take longer in unfamiliar surroundings.

This medium also solves the issue of having to schedule extra time to travel or managing complex diaries, particularly for family group sessions. I have certainly been impressed and surprised at just how effective online therapy has proven, and look forward to continuing to offer sessions in the same way long after the lockdown is lifted.
