Spaces Tues 11am & 1.30pm weekly/fortnightly sessions and Weds at 3pm fortnightly. Many of my clients are neurodivergent as I have a personal interest and good understanding of the issues faced by those on the Autistic Spectrum. I also like to support parents, partners or anyone else who cares about an autistic person, with or without a diagnosis. I also have experience of counselling the bereaved at The Bereavement Counselling Charity for 18 months and counselling students (aged 18-25) for 2 years at the University of Portsmouth. I can help by providing a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space to explore your feelings.

Are you or a child you care for going through a tough time? Maybe your child’s behaviour or feelings of overwhelm are causing real difficulties at home or at school? You might be feeling unsupported? If you feel you’ve reached the point where having someone to listen would help you or your teen then I provide a safe confidential space in which behaviours, feelings and relationships can be explored. You will experience the freedom to talk about and make sense of what is making you feel sad, mad, frustrated or anxious!

Hi and welcome, I am an experienced psychotherapist and coach. I work with young adults, adults & elders. Our initial session is to make sure that you are confident with me to continue (there is no obligation to do so) & also for me to understand a little about what brings you to therapy. I have had the privilege to work with many clients with complex issues. I believe the therapeutic relationship is very important. I also invite you to review the therapy regularly to ensure you are getting the most out of the sessions. When appropriate, I work creatively & with humour. If you have any questions please do contact me.

Are you are struggling with a difficult situation in life, feeling stuck perhaps with an issue from the past or present you need to confront. I will provide you the space to explore and better understand what you are dealing with. Whether it be relationship problems, life changes, dilemmas, anxiety, loss depression or low self-esteem, the opportunity this therapeutic relationship presents, having someone to talk to, is a chance for you to hear your voice, your values and opinions, most importantly being listened too.

What type of mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.
If you are unsure about choosing the right therapist, psychologist, or counsellor, it might be useful to first learn more about therapy types and modalities.

How to find a therapist or counsellor in PO11?
When looking to find a therapist, start by considering training and credentials. Studies also indicate that the therapeutic alliance, or the relationship the client develops with the therapist, is an important factor in their ability to work together to achieve the client’s goals.
What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way.’ Each method of therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues. Psychologists in PO11 specialise in therapeutic approaches such as CBT, EMDR, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), among others. Finding a psychologist or counsellor who is a good fit for you is the most important step to discovering what type of therapy, or combination of therapeutic approaches, will meet your individual needs. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
Can I afford counselling?
Yes. Most counsellors offer reasonable rates or will work on a sliding scale basis. Many accept health insurance. Feel free to discuss this when you contact the counsellor.
