Mostly weekday daytimes though evening and weekend appointments are available.

I appreciate that putting time aside for this may impact your working day and 9 to 5 appointments may be difficult.

It is important to me that this doesn't immediately stop you from getting support. I will consider early appointments, perhaps 8.00am before your work starts, and evening appointments after it, up till 7.30pm.

I know only too well some of the challenges of achieving or maintaining good mental and emotional health, and creating lasting change. But it is possible!

I have been a counsellor for over 20 years, so have a wealth of experience to support you. I provide a comfortable and safe space where you can share your story and explore any situation with openness and honesty.

I work with care, respect and compassion to meet you wherever you are in your life, making sure you feel heard and respected. Exploring the wider and deeper context of your situation with me will help you get back on track.

My approach helps you focus on here-and-now understanding of historic or current problematic situations, how you see yourself and others and how this all affects your thoughts, feelings and actions (and therefore, outcomes).

You will become clearer about what you want and explore what you can do to help you achieve that.

Clients become steadier and more relaxed, and are able to like themselves more, improve personal and work relationships, even process difficult childhood experiences. They learn to handle difficult emotions, disppointment and loss, and find expression (the oppostie of depression) and even joy.

Progress for some includes rebuilding social networks, waking up without dread, and making sure they prioritise their own needs.

I offer a free consultation (15-30 minutes) so you can ask me any questions to help you consider if I am the right therapist for you. Get in touch now using the contact form on this profile page or through my website.

Together we can build your insight, confidence, understanding and self-compassion so you can feel more able to go forward with whatever life holds for you.

I look forward to working with you.

I work face-to-face and online and can be quite flexible with times to best suit what you need. I can do some evening and weekend appointments so you don't need to ask for time off work.

Appointments are scheduled for 60 minutes. 90-minutes sessions also available, as well as discounts for block bookings. Details on my website.

I understand that some people may have reduced or limited income so please ask about concessionary rates based on your ability to pay.

During your free consultation ahead of starting counselling, you can ask me about how I work, confidentiality issues, what may happen during your first therapy session. You can also as anything else you feel may help you decide if I am the therapist to help you get to where you want to be.

If you decide to go ahead, we can talk about where you will come for face-to-face sessions or how we can set up online appointments, and about how you will pay for your sessions. Payment is due at the time of each session. You can pay online or in cash.
