About me and my therapy practice

In my practice our relationship is the most important thing. I work with a lot of people that have had less than ideal experiences with counselling or are nervous to come to counselling. My goal is to make you as comfortable as possible. I work with a large variety of mental health challenges and focus on achievable change.

Normally my work revolves around exploration of feelings and figuring out what people may want, and then helping them work towards those changes, such as supporting them seeking different types of support or helping them make changes to their behaviour and thoughts.

I know that taking a step towards counselling is not an easy decision, so I will do my best to make sure that you feel safe and comfortable wherever possible, I am happy to make adjustments to suit your needs, as much as I can. I like to be myself in the counselling room, and make sure that you feel authenticity in our sessions.

Practice description

I offer a free intro call so we can get to know each other a little. Asking questions about different aspects of your life like your support networks, and exploring what your challenges are. For couples this is done with one or both of you.

Ideally I work weekly, but I understand this isn't going to work for everyone. Fortnightly is sometimes a better option for people for a number of reasons. I always try to accommodate different needs with my schedule. 

I also send any information that you may need over after the intro call, so you can have a look before committing to sessions. Including a standard therapy contract and a form for all the information I need

My first session

In a first session we do a lot of figuring out, go through the therapy contract, and explain it, set goals for therapy and get to know each-other. Focusing on where you're at, and where you want to be. It's a chance for you to feel out the space and if therapy is where you want to be.
