Life moves quickly. Often there doesn't seem like time to absorb what has happened or how it has affected us. Other times we might have a sense that something is wrong without being able to articulate what it is.

Therapy provides a space to slow down and reflect, whether in a time of crisis, such as a relationship breakdown or job redundancy, or for personal development, where people seek to know themselves more deeply.

Little by little, Gestalt therapy seeks to give the client a greater awareness of themselves, their circumstances, and their ways of relating. Counselling can also provide support during difficult or trying times.

I believe counselling can benefit anyone who is genuinely curious about themselves and provides a place where personal growth can occur. I often describe counselling as 'work' to clients, and it can be some of the richest and most rewarding work a person can do.

I am available for sessions at London Gestalt Centre near Kings Cross St. Pancras, The Flame Centre near Waterloo Station, and Therapy Space East in Shoreditch. I am also open to walking therapy during the warmer months.

Counselling sessions are fifty minutes long and require a weekly commitment to attend. The session will be at the same time and place each week wherever possible. I initially suggest to new clients that we work together for twelve weeks.

Each session is £60 payable in cash at the beginning of the session. I have limited availability for low cost counselling for  clients on lower incomes.
