About me and my therapy practice

 I offer concessionary fees for people on benefits or low Income and to students of counselling and psychotherapy in their first training.

I offer counselling, psychotherapy and life coaching for individuals and couples of all ages - gay, hetero and bisexual.

I also offer Talking Therapy, Play Therapy and Jungian Sand Tray therapy to Children and young people between 4 and 18 years. 

I offer short term therapy (between 6 to 24 month) and long term therapy to clients all ages. I only take on clients for a minimum of 6 weekly sessions and normally start with weekly therapy. I only  offer fortnightly sessions if the client is in therapy with me for a minimum of 12 weekly sessions. 

Practice description

Within the spectrum of theoretical approaches I would describe my approach as Humanistic Counsellor and Psychotherapist in general. I work in a client-centred way, always approaching the client as a whole person.

I use Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (REBT), Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy (TA), Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR) and Trauma Therapy, Person Centred Counselling, Psychodynamic and Transpersonal Psychotherapy, depending on the need of the client. I choose the most suitable approach at the assessment session as I do not believe that one model helps every client. When working with children and adolescents, I use sand tray therapy or art therapy and CBT specifically with adolescents. I also offer short term therapy for children and adolescents in crisis to provide containment and risk management until they will be seen by the NHS. I offer long and short-term therapy in an effort to facilitate growth, change and healing of the whole person.

I also receive referrals from EAP’s (Employee Assistance Programs) and have gained a lot of experience and expertise in working with problems occurring at work like bullying, traumatic incidents or stress related problems.

My first session

I use the first session to find out what problems you would like to work on or what you would like to bring to counselling. We will also explore your expectations and how I can help you. Please enquire by email and I will respond within 24 to 48 hours. After we agreed the date and time for your first session I will send you an assessment form and a therapy contract for you to fill in and sign and send back to me. I then confirm the first appointment. After the first session you have time to decide if you want to continue with me for regular weekly sessions.
