Shana Golding

I am available to take new online clients and 'in person' clients.

This could be the first time you have thought about contacting a therapist, or maybe you are returning to therapy, but either way it can feel like a big step.

I'm a qualified BACP accredited, integrative-relational counsellor. I can provide a non-judgemental and confidential space for you to explore what is troubling you. We decide together whether the work we do will be short or long-term, for as long as you find it useful.

I offer a free telephone consultation for you ask any questions you need to, helping you to decide whether you would feel comfortable working with me. 

I work with individual adult clients and couples.

I am registered with Aviva healthcare insurance.

I'm able to offer in person sessions as well as online sessions if more convenient for you.

The first session is called an assessment session and is a chance for us to get to know each other.  We will talk about what brings you to want some counselling and some more general questions about where you are in your life at the moment.  Not only does this help me capture a picture of your world but informs me on whether I am the right person to help you with the issues you are facing.  If you are coming as a couple our focus will be on your relationship and how you want to bring about change.

In this session you will get the chance to experience how I work, so that you can decide whether you would like to continue working with me.  Some clients know right away that they want to continue whereas others take time after the session to think about it.
