Mr Chris Low

Psychotherapist (Registered)

“I’m an experienced, accredited psychotherapist offering an interactive and reflective space, designed to help you gain a more authentic and fulfilled sense of self. Please see more at: https://www.chrislowtherapy.com”

About Me

Choosing me as your therapist means you will get someone who is interactive, calm and challenging when required. I use reflective questioning and reflective interpretations to help you think about yourself in a different way. Sessions are client-led, which means we work with what you bring and at your own speed.

Approach

I am trained in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, which underpins my theoretical framework. Together, we will explore your thoughts and feelings, looking at behaviour patterns, and creating links between your present difficulties and past experiences. It’s a reflective space for you to think openly and honestly about your internal world. Working in a psychodynamic way means looking at your life through a deeper lens. Often, it will mean taking a closer look at your early relationships and experiences as these serve as a blueprint for our adult life. It’s about finding the hidden meaning and making connections where you might not have looked before because they were too difficult to think about at the time. I’m not a traditional, silent psychotherapist. I am interactive and will offer up interpretations that are designed to give you some insight and space to think about yourself on a deeper level. I believe the therapeutic relationship is important to the outcome of therapy, as it creates the catalyst for change. To get the most out of therapy, it can be beneficial to lean into it. The benefits of therapy are different for each person, but my aim is to provide you with the opportunities to grow into being a version of yourself that feels more authentic and fulfilled.
