Welcome! If you are here, you are obviously thinking counselling might be a good idea. I know all too well browsing through all those profiles can be overwhelming. How do you choose a therapist? I have been there myself - so hard! Particularly when we are not in the best place. Feeling anxious and overwhelmed with too much going on... trying to move forward after someone's death ... or just feeling like life has caught up and everything is just bubbling up. I have worked with all these situations and more. You may or may not know what you want out of therapy - but we can figure it out together. Worth a try!
What I offer is a space you can enter - pause - stop - and focus on yourself. I will not ever judge you or your ability to cope - I will genuinely try to support you and help you unpick your difficulties. That involves more than just passively listening and acknowledging. I will be active in the dialogue and bring my knowledge and experience "in the room".
If you would like to get a sense of me before committing, I offer a free initial phone call to give us a chance to check we can be a good fit. If you decide to go ahead, our first session will be an opportunity to get to know each other and decide whether and how we want to go ahead. The fee for my first session is £60 - further sessions are £70.

I offer talk therapy where you can explore, with me, your challenges and difficulties. I will also help you think about how you cope with things and might make suggestions of things to try! Most clients find that after a few sessions, things start to shift for them.

My approach is integrative. I take inspiration from different models to inform my work with you. In our first few sessions, we will look at what has brought you to therapy and your potential expectations and goals. During our work together, we will look at our patterns are and how we can challenge those. We will also explore ways for you to do things differently and cope with your feelings.
