About me and my therapy practice
I know from experience that it takes courage to reach out to someone.
I work with clients as individuals, because each of us has our own story; and we will explore the best way to work together.
You may have day to day concerns or something from the past. I can help you make healthier choices, feel better about yourself, and take back a sense of control of your life.
We sometimes spend so much time looking after others, that we forget who we really are or what our own needs are. Also our needs change as we grow older, relationships change, bodies change and it can be a worrying time. Life experience is just as important as studying the theories.
I believe every person has the inner strength and the solutions to their own problems. We just sometimes need a bit of help to find them.
I am passionate about my work believe that the relationship between client and counsellor is at the heart of the counselling process; and I can offer an environment where you can explore these concerns in your own time.

About me and my therapy practice
I tailor my work to the individual counsellor's needs, using a combination of different models including Hawkins & Shohet, Page & Wosket, and Inskipp & Proctor. My own counselling training was primarily person centred, but encompassed CBT and TA amongst others. I am experienced with working with both adults and children. I am happy to work either via Zoom or face to face.
My fees are £60 for 90 minutes.
Practice description
I would like to think that I work collaboratively with supervisees in a supportive role. I also believe that the relationship between supervisee and supervisor is key in order to work effectively.
My first session
1- We provisionally agree on a date / time and you choose how you'd like to connect. If working via Zoom it is important to make sure you are comfortable and not over-heard and as far as possible free from interruptions, and you have a good internet connection.
2- You download Zoom.us free from the internet, which is a recognised and encrypted platform.
3- I will require your fee at least 24 hours before the agreed date. Once your payment has gone through, the date is confirmed and the link sent.
4- On the agreed day / time, we meet online for the agreed session length.
