About me and my therapy practice

Welcome to my page. My name’s Julia and I’m a fully qualified, BACP registered, integrative counsellor and psychotherapist.

Are you struggling to cope or experiencing low mood? Do you feel uneasy or ‘not like your usual self’ and you don’t know why? Are you wondering where your anxiety comes from? Do the same patterns seem to repeat throughout your life? I can help you make positive changes in your life, by exploring your problems at a deeper depth. You may feel you can’t talk to friends or family as they have their own problems, I’m here to help. Talking therapy is proven to reduce stress and anxiety, thus reducing both mental and physical illness and improving general wellbeing.

Your well-being is central to everything we will work on. Counselling is time for you – it’s your time and your space to reflect upon your current worries, fears, problems and reflect upon your experience of life. It’s time to release what you’ve been subconsciously holding in emotionally, helping to free up your energy. As this is your counselling you will decide how you wish to use your sessions. We’ll agree upon what you personally wish to work on and collaboratively work towards achieving these goals. I work holistically, tailoring your therapy by incorporating different theories and methods to meet your individual, unique needs. Current and former clients describe me as warm, open, empathic, calm, honest and authentic.

I provide a safe, non-judgmental therapeutic space where you can share and explore your problems, worries and fears. I’m interested in you as an individual and the future you want for yourself. Initially working with the ‘here and now’, we will build a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship. As our relationship develops you will learn to open up on a deeper level, allowing you to grow in self-awareness and heal. 

I will support you to identify your short and long term goals from counselling, working towards achieving these with regular reviews of our work together. 

Practice description

Taking the first steps towards finding the right counsellor for you is so important - this is why I offer a FREE introductory half an hour telephone assessment session. We will briefly discuss your concerns and see if you feel we can work together effectively and instigate the therapeutic changes you seek. You’re under no obligation to enter counselling following this session. 

I offer one to one individual online and telephone counselling and psychotherapy including:

  • Short term counselling (6-12 sessions weekly)
  • Focused counselling (12+ sessions weekly)
  • Open ended counselling (weekly or fortnightly)
  • Longer term psychotherapy

Online and telephone sessions are held from the comfort of your own space at a time that is convenient for you.

Sessions start from £45 for 50 minutes for low income, students and unemployed people. Usual session rates are £55. I also offer discounted rates for block bookings - please contact me for further information. I consider home visits in certain circumstances after a risk assessment. Home visits start from £60 per session.

I work integratively, meaning I incorporate different theoretical approaches according to your individual, unique, holistic needs. I introduce psychoeducation into the therapy to increase your understanding of your behaviours. Techniques are also introduced to help you, including breathing exercises and other strategies.

You explore your problems with me to guide you. Then techniques may be introduced to help. The sessions are your time and your space to use however you chose to.

My first session

To help you to decide if you’re ready for counselling and if I’m the right counsellor for you, I offer a FREE no obligation 30-minute telephone consultation. Taking these first steps considering counselling may feel scary or overwhelming. You can expect a warm and friendly welcome where we’ll discuss your needs and reasons for seeking counselling without judgement in a safe space where you’re free to share anything you chose. 

After this initial meeting, you’re under no pressure or obligation to book an appointment as it’s important to me for you to find the right counsellor for you and enter counselling if and when it’s the right time for you. Therefore, I encourage you to speak with a few different counsellors before making your decision. You’ll instinctively feel a connection with the person who’s right for you. 

If you feel we can work together effectively, we can start to instigate the therapeutic changes you seek. I look forward to meeting you and starting our positive work together.
