About me and my therapy practice
I am an experienced counsellor and supervisor. I have experience of working with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, bereavement, relationships and low self-esteem. I work with both adults, children and young people, and specialise in work with adolescents.
Parents looking for a therapist to work with their child or adolescent should email to discuss how work might be approached, and all aspects of confidentiality, risk assessment and safeguarding.
After an initial assessment we would plan future sessions based on need. Sessions might involve talk therapy, creative therapy, mindfulness based strategies or whatever is needed to improve your well-being.
Practice description
If you are interested in working with me I will send you a copy of my contract/working agreement which explains how I work and the boundaries for safe therapy, including confidentiality, online practices and safeguarding.
Then we will arrange an initial session where I can assess your needs and we can see if we feel comfortable working together.
After the initial session we can look at a plan of how you want future sessions to go.

About me and my therapy practice
I aim to provide a warm, safe, professional environment for you to explore all aspects of your client work.
If you are looking for a supervisor who specialises in counselling children and young people, I am an experienced CYP counsellor and provide training workshops for counsellors who wish to work with children.
I will endeavour to encourage your development and effectiveness as a counsellor while ensuring that you maintain safe, professional and ethical standards of practice.
The needs of your clients will be the main focus of our work, but also there will be time for you to look at your own needs, as I believe that your well-being is vital to ensure good working practice. This will include exploring any issues that arise that impact on your work, while maintaining the boundaries between supervision and personal therapy.
I currently work via online platforms (zoom) and face to face at my office in Southport
Fees: £50 per hour (possibility of reduced rate of£30 per hour for trainees - details available on request)
