If you are ready to take that next step in coming to Counselling, there are some things you want to know of what to expect. This page will hopefully answer any questions or queries that you may have, but if you do need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

To begin with, finding the right counsellor that you feel comfortable with is very important. With this in mind, I do offer all clients a free initial introduction, either by phone call or video chat. This is without obligation and it gives you the opportunity to decide if you would like to move forward with me as your counsellor.

I offer counselling on a face-to-face basis and also online via Microsoft Teams. Your sessions with me are not time limited, so this will enable you to have as many sessions as you require and for your needs. We will arrange our sessions that is convenient for the both of us. Below are some of the services that I offer:

Individual Counselling

We are all unique and although we experience things differently to everyone else, you are not alone! I accept you for who you are and, as you are, and offer an open space for exploration of you thoughts and feelings without judgement.

I am experienced in counselling clients who might be feeling lost or ‘anchored’, struggling with past experiences, feelings of anxiety and/or depression, past relationship scars that may be encroaching on their new relationship and feeling a negative belief about themselves.

Counselling has the compelling ways in which it can help and possible ways you haven’t thought about. I often find, that once you have found that right counsellor for you, trust in the therapeutic relationship will only strengthen, and in those possible ways, you will find for yourself things you hadn’t released you was carrying. As your counsellor, I will empower you to discover your strength and resilience so that you can face your adversities, now and in to your future. I will support you in developing a learning about yourself and a better understanding of how you relate to world. I truly believe that this is the principal of permanent change in your life, allowing you to find a sense of peace, evenness and direction - enabling you to live happier, healthier and fulfilled life.

Some of the areas in which I can help with include:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Bereavement

• Bullying

• Emotional abuse

• Family issues

• LGBTQIA+ counselling

• Low self-esteem / self-confidence

• Relationship problems

• Separation and divorce

• Stress

• Trauma

• Young people’s counselling

I appreciate that seeking Counselling can feel like taking a big step, as such, I offer a free initial phone call or video call, so we can ‘meet’ without any obligation. This will allow you to decide how you want to move forward and if I am the right counsellor for you.

While I keep to the Person Centred Framework, I am an Integrative counsellor, which means that I will draw on various theories (Psychodynamic, Humanistic, Transactional Analysis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapies), based on what feels right for you. I am genuine, empathic and responsive to you and your needs in each session.

Fees

My fees are £45.00 per session.
