Please contact me, preferably via this page, to book a free 30 minute session (via zoom or phone) This introductory session will ensure you feel comfortable with my counselling approach before we book the first session

I am an experienced Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with a wide range of experience working in NHS settings and also for a number of Charities delivering counselling for a wide range of issues and life difficulties.

I am additionally qualified to work with children and young people, which enhances my work with adults experiencing family relationship difficulties. 

My view of counselling is that it creates a safe space to resolve and heal from life's inevitable stresses and challenging, often painful times.

When we are faced with difficult life experiences and situations it can often be hard to see how we will cope or even that there is a way through. We frequently feel stuck in our thoughts and feelings. Counselling provides a space to gain perspective and a better understanding of our ourselves and he situation we are in or facing. This is turn means we can begin to move forward again with hope and confidence.

In addition to counselling, as a qualified Yoga Teacher,  I can introduce Mindfulness, Breathing techniques and Relaxation methods which are all helpful in reducing stress and helping us to think more clearly about our problems.

I use a comfortable counselling room in The Kirkbymoorside Natural Health Centre, and also at Community Counselling in Norton Malton, which is close to the train station and Coastliner bus station.

The Malton room has wheelchair access.

I am currently offering phone/video counselling sessions on a flexible basis.

The first session will be used to talk about the difficulties which have brought you to counselling and to begin looking at how we will work together to begin understanding how we can better resolve or cope with them.

I will talk about confidentiality and how I meet Data Protection requirements

I will answer any questions you may have about the counselling process and we will agree the number of sessions and times etc. For therapy to have lasting benefit a minimum of 6 sessions is recommended.
