About me and my therapy practice
Essentially I work by listening to your story and the difficulties bringing you to counselling.
We may work short term (approx 10-12 sessions) or open ended, depending on your aims.
With short term therapy, the scope of the work will be limited to a particular area of concern.
In open ended therapy we will work at more depth, which can bring more lasting change for you. Exploring your life and relationships both in the here and now and also in your early life, we can start to understand the ways in which you were formed psychologically and how this impacts you now. This knowledge can bring a new awareness and freedom to move forward from unhelpful feelings and belief systems. This can only be achieved within the context of a trusting relationship. I always work at a pace that feels comfortable and safe for you and I encourage an ongoing review of our work.
Practice description
My practice is face to face or online via Zoom (online only in Cardiff). I find working online to be just as helpful as face to face therapy. Sessions are always at the same regular weekly time and last 50 minutes.
It is important for the client to feel they are in a private place for the sessions and with good internet connection.
I do charge for missed sessions.
My first session
The initial consultation is a chance for us to both find out a bit more and to see if ongoing counselling with me would be right for you.
I will explain the contract and we may agree a timescale or to work open ended.
The fee is the same as for other sessions.
