About me and my therapy practice
An experienced, accredited Counsellor, I offer face to face, video and phone counselling. I also offer autogenic therapy (mindfulness-based stress management), careers guidance and strengths coaching. May you find many enriching things.
Practice description
If you're stuck in upsetting emotions, thoughts and habits, counselling could help you nurture a more helpful, kind and aware way to paddle your canoe.
Being listened to and mindfully exploring the deep emotional processes that we can all get lost in form the bedrock of my approach to therapy. I use creative methods to help slow things down, clarify what's going on and open up healing possibilities. You may also wish to learn practical mindfulness and stress management methods to cultivate inner balance.
Feel free to check out my website. As well as saying more about how we could work together, it has a video intro and links to self-help resources you may find useful.
My first session
Feel free to get in touch if you'd like to arrange a free 15 to 20 minute phone or video call or a £30 first appointment of up to one hour to see if we could work well together. While my standard fee is £50, we may consider both concessions and higher fees within the sliding scale described on my website.
Therapy can provide a quiet and accepting place where you can be heard and acknowledged as well as a place to actively and creatively explore important issues. Our first session involves gathering key information about what's going on in your life, so it can have a different vibe to how we'd be when we've settled into working together. Feel free to check out the Counselling page of my website to get more of a taste of the different ingredients in the therapy casserole.
If you've got any questions about your first appointment, feel free to ping me a message or give me a call.
I wish you well on your psychological travels.
