Are you feeling overwhelmed, confused, stressed or frustrated? Are you grappling with difficult questions and/or feeling as though you don’t know who to talk to? Do you feel ambivalent, stuck or as though no one understands? What if you had someone to talk to who could help you get to the bottom of your feelings? What if things could feel clearer, if the stress could ease and you could see a way through the pain? Talking about our difficulties is the best way to help us process what’s going on. As a counsellor, I’ll reflect and offer challenge in a gentle way which can help you to see ways through that you’ve not seen before.

Spaces now available. So many different approaches, who do you chose? It is a minefield choosing the right therapist. A good start is to check for a website to see a therapists training, experience and qualifications. I practice in a psychodynamic way which means we work with the unconscious, reflect on the past and how this impacts on your present. I can offer you a warm, safe space where you can truly be yourself. Repair and healing occurs when you feel seen, heard and understood. I can help with depression, anxiety and finding a purpose in life. Contact me for a free talk to start investing in you and finding yourself again.

Welcome to the profile for my private counselling practice in Basingstoke, Hampshire. Why see a counsellor? It can help you better understand your thoughts, feelings and relationships. It can be about the past or the present, or the loss of someone or something. It may be about changing or finding new meaning in life. Maybe you feel stuck in ongoing circumstances, in your work or family life or just in how you feel within yourself. Counselling can be a place to find hope during difficult times or be somewhere to tackle a specific problem. If you feel stressed, anxious, depressed or confused, then counselling can often help.

I can help anyone who is not feeling the best that they could feel, from people with specific issues to people who just don't feel right. I offer a hypno gastric band to aid in weight loss, as well as a 10 week hypnotherapy weight loss group. I also offer stop smoking hypnotherapy. I used to be a family solicitor, and so I specialise in helping clients through relationship breakdowns. This involves working through issues like anger, anxiety and depression as well as low self confidence.

Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I believe it is paramount for you to feel safe, heard and understood. You may know what you need or you may be more uncertain. No matter, it is your unique perspective and experience which is important. Having the space to explore this, free of judgement, can build self-awareness and bring clarity.

When was the last time you were able to give an honest answer to the question 'how are you'? Most of us say 'fine thank you' but what if you aren't feeling fine? What if you know something isn't as it should be but don't know what it is? If you are feeling anxious, angry, 'stuck', facing changes that you find unsettling and challenging and the future looks scary, we can work together to understand those feelings and try to resolve them. If you are feeling invisible, misunderstood or you are not getting what you need from your relationships and want something different, I can you the time and space to change what makes you unhappy.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
