I offer face to face sessions in my warm and private counselling room based in Paignton, Devon. Both telephone and online sessions via zoom are also available. I hope to make you feel as comfortable and safe as possible within the counselling space, whether this is in person or online, it is entirely your choice. 

I try to be as flexible as possible; although I tend to work Tuesday to Friday 09:00-17:30. If you cannot see me during these particular hours due to work or parenting schedules, I will usually try to accommodate. 

I also try to provide you with a regular slot (time & day) if you like, so you know where you stand. 

Hello, I am an integrative counsellor & psychotherapist, with a welcoming, calm and safe space for you to talk; where you can begin to identify and process change. I tend to use a combination of approaches to suit you and your therapeutic needs. However, person centred practice is always at my core; I feel establishing a strong therapeutic relationship, where there is trust and understanding, really enables change to occur for you.

I always aim to provide you with a safe and comfortable environment for you to talk and feel heard and understood. That is after all, at the heart of this practice. This is your process and should be done so on your terms, in partnership together. 

I offer hour sessions weekly, with no limit in duration. Fortnightly sessions can also be agreed upon. I feel everyone's process is different and therefore the process time required is different for everyone too. I like my practice to reflect this. So, I am here until we feel our work is naturally coming to an end, and you are ready. 

I have years of experience working with neuro-diversity and specifically counselling with neuro-diverse clients. My approach considers and reflects this within my practice and reasonable adjustments are made for you. I have lamps, blinds, a fluffy rug and cushions, a weighted blanket and fidget toys for you to use, to ensure counselling is made just that little bit easier for you. I understand. 

I also offer couples counselling; where we can explore your relationship and work through your challenges together. My couples counselling rate is £60

My practice is located in Paignton, with disabled access and free car parking for you. 

I offer a free initial phone call to discuss the details, which is 30 minutes in duration. Your initial session has a reduced rate of 50% off. This initial session is a good space for you to get an idea for what counselling with me could look like and to ask me any further questions. This is also a good space for discussing the counselling contract and setting any goals or ideas for the future.
