Currently I have limited available spaces 

Life can be tough;  with situations we never believed we would find ourselves in and despite all our efforts we can end up confused about what to do for the best. The longer our confusion continues, the worse we feel about our lives and our ability to make positive decisions and make lasting changes . Its a downward spiral that can make us say and do things we regret but we have no idea how to change it all and take back control . We just know we feel powerless and have lost our sense of peace and happiness.

I offer a chance for you to explore your situation and unpick your confusion without judgement, with a sure and confident knowledge in YOU and your abilities ; whilst knowing that although life and circumstances may be hard, with clarity you can know what is best for you, you can make choices that feel right and you can gain control over your life.

No one can work miracles for you but I do have many years of therapeutic experience and witnessing of the changes that counselling has made for people. 

It is a strange paradox, as from the word go I am facilitating you to leave our relationship , in the full and certain knowledge that you can feel more able, more peaceful and more in control of your life.

I work out of my semi rural small office in Hampshire , close  to Romsey / Winchester and Eastleigh. There is parking on site.

I also offer on-line Zoom and telephone sessions. 

Counselling is a relationship built upon trust and so you must feel you can trust me in order that you can explore  things that are concerning you. This can then allow you to get the most out of counselling. 

We will spend 50 minutes together so that you can experience how a counselling session feels and this will help you make an informed decision about moving forward . 

If you decide that you would like to go ahead with further sessions then we can agree our times going forward. I usually suggest a block of 6 sessions  to begin with. Days and times can be flexibly agreed between us and you can always extend the sessions beyond 6 if you choose 

I have been a  qualified client centred supervisor working in Hampshire since 2006.

I have a varied supervision practise which includes counsellors in training/ qualified counsellors/ qualified supervisors plus  community project workers and NHS nursing practitioners. 

Areas where my current supervisees work include  Universities, Sixth Form  Colleges, Bereavement services, Substance Misuse services  and Cancer Support organisations 

Areas where I have supervised include GP Primary Care, Mental Health, Forensic Mental Health, Trauma  including  Sexual Trauma.

All my supervisee relationships are built collaboratively. I do not stand in judgement of my supervisees clinical work but rather in support and growth of it  through challenge and reflective exploration. I experience my own growth as a counsellor and supervisor in my supervisory relationships 

I consider The BACP ethical framework  as. working document and I  utilise it  in my supervisory work in order that ethics are explored/considered and  integrated into practice delivery through rationale.

I work out of my semi-rural office near to Chandlers Ford/ Eastleigh / Winchester and Romsey. There is parking on site 

I also offer online sessions via Zoom as well as telephone appointments.

I work on a one -one/ couples/group basis

Session fees are a sliding scale from £40 -£50 and last 1.5 hrs-2.0 hrs 

Sessions are usually offered 4 weekly or by client / case number 

First sessions allow supervisees to experience my way of working and then decide if they wish to go ahead with our relationship.

We will contract the boundaries of the relationship and agree fees and times.
