About me and my therapy practice
Are you in need of help? Someone you can talk openly to about your difficulties, someone who is empathic, experienced, non judgemental, knowledgeable.
Could you benefit from a safe confidential place to work through how you are feeling, thinking and behaving ?
I have been a practising counsellor in Bath for over 25 years. I am an Accredited Counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) since 2001. I am committed to providing Counselling in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.
As a counsellor and therapist I work with both individuals and couples and other combinations of family members. I work in an interactive and collaborative manner which helps develop trust and provides you with information and insights that you can utilise to address the issues you are facing. I have moved more to a life coaching model in my work which favours working more to a shorter term model of up to twelve sessions and often six sessions.
I adapt my approach to suit each client, however I do find that client’s can make significant changes from understanding at a deeper level what the roots of the problems they are facing and being heard and gaining fresh perspectives can be transforming.
Practice description
I work from my ground floor counselling room which is in a building to the side of my house. I offer one hour sessions and I will give you a guide to counselling at our first meeting.
The first session is an exploratory session to see what issues you are facing and to decide if we think it would be beneficial to arrange another session. I normally work shorter term ie up to 12 sessions but with particular clients I can work long term if we decide that would be beneficial.
