Happy to answer any queries you may have in relation to counselling services offered.

About me and my therapy practice

I offer a free introductory informal chat to see if we are suited to work with each other. If we feel that I am not a suitable counsellor for your needs then I will happily assist you in your search. In most cases people choose to work with me as I have twenty five years counselling experience in various settings. We will personalise the therapy for you depending on what you can afford and the presenting problem. The counselling sessions last for fifty minutes and structured at a frequency, time and day that suits you. My services are provided remotely via zoom or telephone. I am qualified and compassionate so you can confidently work with me as your therapist. 

Practice description

I have been working in private practice counselling for over two decades. I also hold a psychology degree and have experience in couple, family and group counselling. My counselling training was firmly based in person centred counselling with an ethos of a professional, confidential service.

My first session

A first session is spent getting to know you and the difficulties you are experiencing. My aim is to assist you with the challenges you are facing. Each client is different hence the therapy will be unique to your needs. We can go at a pace and depth that suits you. I want you to feel safe, heard and understood. I will feedback to you my understanding so we can mutually agree on areas to be addressed. You will not be rushed therapy is a process and I want you to feel accepted and respected.
