About me and my therapy practice

Let me share a little information that may help you in your search for a therapist.

I believe that effective therapy is not "a one size fits all" approach and your individual needs are always a priority here.

Life can sometimes be challenging, we can all benefit from extra support from time to time & during your sessions you will find an understanding and confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and experiences. 

Talking therapy can help you to overcome pain from past events, relieve the symptoms of mental health issues or just learn to deal with 'life' more effectively. 

The foundation of our work together is underpinned by establishing a high quality therapeutic relationship. This enables us to work together in a way that is professional & safe. My aim is to support you while you work out a way forward by offering a non-judgmental space where the focus is on you.

I am an Integrative Therapist. My therapeutic qualification is in Psychotherapeutic Counselling.  I can use a variety of different therapeutic techniques to enable us to work through your therapy goals together. 

I am a Certified Telephone and Online Therapist. I offer online therapy via Zoom.

As well as in Private Practice, I have experience of working for a local Hospice Bereavement Counselling Service, the NHS Staff Counselling Service, (as a volunteer and on contract), A Domestic Violence Service, Private companies, Occupational Health Programs, Local Authority & EAPs.

More information & FAQ's can be found on our website www.orenna.co.uk or please email me with any questions you may have.

My first session

Your first session will be up to 1 hour to allow us time to work through our contract, BACP ethical practice & GDPR information at the beginning of the appointment and to answer any questions you may have.

Subsequent appointments are 50 minutes.

Longer appointment of 90 minutes are available by prior request.

If you do not wish to commit to long term therapy at the moment but would still like to benefit from an appointment, I offer a 90 minute 'Single Session Therapy' (sometimes known as ONEplus therapy)  on Zoom where I aim to support you as much as possible in one session so that you have the opportunity to start to identify and make the changes you seek. Of course, further support is available if you feel it is needed.
