About me and my therapy practice
A 30-year vocation in social, emotional & mental health care support enables me to work with sensitivity, compassion, and respect.
I am a registered member of the BACP and studied and trained at the Universities of Cambridge, London, Oxford, the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, The British Association of Psychotherapists and the Institute for Group Analyses.
As part of my ongoing personal development, I engage regular clinical supervision to hold in check that my professional practice is focused, solid, and evolving.
Practice description
In response to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and restrictions to movement, I am currently only taking new referrals who can engage remotely by Skype Video conferencing or telephone and for short term periods of between 1 to a maximum of 12 sessions.
I have also substantially reduced my fees to provide counselling support for people who have been financially affected by the pandemic.
My first session
The first session is an assessment session which will last for 50 minutes. In this we will discuss the reasons you are seeking therapy at this time, your hopes and perhaps worries about beginning therapy and any other issues you want to bring.
We will also discuss some practical 'housekeeping' matters such as the time of sessions, boundaries, confidentiality, holidays, breaks and cancellations.
