Availability

My main availability is on Mondays and Saturdays. I also have some limited availability on Friday afternoons (non concession times). Please feel free to contact me to discuss.

Disclaimer: I am employed as a counsellor at the University of Plymouth (UoP) and I am not able to meet with current UoP university students, or former UoP students who have worked with me as a university counsellor less than one year ago. If in doubt, feel free to contact me.

About me and my therapy practice

I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist with over ten years experience in Higher and Further education settings, helping people of all ages process trauma and find solutions to live's challenges. I enjoy accompanying my clients on their journey and find ways forward. My approach is creative and flexible, informed by a person centred approach that integrates existential, phenomenological and solution focused brief therapy approaches. I am particularly experienced in supporting people who experience themselves as different and diverse, or feel discriminated against or shamed by the world they live in.

Practice description

I meet clients in person, on zoom (online) or on the phone. My office is near Mutley plains in Plymouth. Clients may be able to use the car park in front of the building that offers two hours free parking, and my office is located 11 minutes away from the train station. The building has a bathroom. I am on the 2nd floor and the building does not have an elevator, so it will not be suitable for people in wheelchairs or who struggle with stairs.

Subject to availability, I can offer weekly, bi-weekly or ad hoc one-at-a-time sessions. Feel free to discuss any queries or concerns you have with me prior to our first meeting.

I normally briefly review our work every six sessions. I am happy to contract for short term or long term work. 

My first session

I aim for our first session to be a therapeutic consultation. This includes some assessment of what is going on for you and gives you the opportunity to check me out. 

Subject to availability, I offer a free first one-hour session. This gives us time to discuss your hopes from therapy, and lets you decide if you will be comfortable working with me.
