A gentle introduction to therapy
Stepping Stones is a six-part course designed to help Yellow Door clients feel more prepared and confident before starting therapy.
Each short session lasts around 10 to 15 minutes and is led by members of our therapeutic team, who gently introduce key therapeutic ideas and practical examples in a friendly and supportive way. The session content includes:
• Session 1: Your Journey, Your Therapy
• Session 2: What is Trauma & the Hand Brain Model
• Session 3: Grounding & The Window of Tolerance
• Session 4: TIPP & Negative Thoughts
• Session 5: STOPP & The Psychological Sigh
• Session 6: Recap
The course is designed to help clients understand what to expect from therapy, while giving them some useful tools and ideas that they can begin putting into practice.
Once a client has signed up, sessions are released gradually, with a new session becoming available each week. This gives people time to reflect on what they have learned and try the methods out at their own pace.
At the end, participants will receive a certificate of completion to recognise the time and commitment they have given to preparing for their therapeutic journey.
