About me and my therapy practice

Currently working online.

As an experienced Psychotherapist, I have many years of employment working within both the public and private sector. I am qualified to work with Adults, Couples and Young People (12-18), on a range of presenting issues.

Counselling can provide an opportunity for you to think and talk in confidence about personal or emotional difficulties that are worrying you. It is a time and space for you to open up, examine, reflect and begin to understand the root of your troubles. It will offer you a space to explore them, build your resilience and develop different ways of dealing with them.

At the heart of counselling, is the relationship between you and your Counsellor. So, it is important that you find someone with whom you like and trust. I hope that the information found here, and the video and testimonials that are available to read on my website, will help you decide if I am the right counsellor for you.

Thank you for your interest and I hope to hear from you soon.

My first session

At our first session, we would talk about your reasons for contacting me and what you are looking for within this Counselling space.

Within this session, there would be time for you to ask me any questions you may have around how I work, my theoretical approach and anything else you need to know.

This 50 minute paid session would hopefully offer you sufficient time to get a sense of me and how I work. To give you an idea if I am the right therapist for you, or not. To then decide if you would like to move forward.

If time permitted and you wished too. We would begin to look at contracting for the work, based on what you have brought into the session. This would cover frequency of sessions, an initial duration for the work and begin to think about your aims and goals for the work.

I understand that for some, it is important to have a brief introductory call in advance of booking in. To meet and get a sense of me. To help decide if I am the right therapist for you, or not.

These free, 15 minute Zooms calls would not offer sufficient time to explore at any depth your reasons for contacting me, but would offer some time for you to ask any pressing questions you may have.

Whichever option feels right for you, please do get in touch and let me know.
