Seeking counselling support for the first time can feel daunting for a lot of people. With this in mind, I offer you a safe, confidential, trusting, neutral and non judgemental space. I aim to make the process as easy and reassuring as I can.

I appreciate that it can feel difficult in asking for help and to put trust in someone you have never met, especially with often upsetting and difficult issues. It can feel like we may have somehow failed or it's a last resort in trying to resolve difficulties. I have helped many people like yourself, who also felt unsure initially on what to expect and feelings of trepidation or embarrassment in asking for help.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client is all important. By working in an integrative way (meaning that I work with a range of theories), I am able to work in the best way that helps you the client. In my experience what works for one person doesn't for another, after all we are all different.

Whether  as a couple or as an individual  if you are facing issues around sex and intimacy, relationship difficulties with communication, managing a break up, or family issues .I also have experience of working with trauma, counselling survivors of child sexual abuse, rape / sexual assault. I can help you to get things back to how you would like them to be

Sexual issues are something most of us will experience at some point in our lives.I understand that it can be particularly difficult to talk about and feel embarrassing in seeking help. Psychosexual Therapy (PST) can help you overcome a range of issues such as loss of Sexual Desire, Vaginismus, PE, ED, Performance Anxiety etc. It can help improve your communication around sex / intimacy,  enhancing your sex life to be part of your healthy relationship.

Sessions are for 60 minutes and I can be flexible in how often and at what times we meet. For some having a regular time and slot works but for others it doesn't so I try to be flexible with my appointments.

I work in an empathic and integrative way (meaning that I work with a range of modalities, for example, Systemic, Psychodynamic, CBT, Person Centred)

Depending on the type of help you are looking for may determine the way we work together for example Psychosexual therapy is different to working on relationship issues.

I offer face to face , Online and Telephone sessions.

The initial session is to get to know each other and to see if we are a good fit. I believe the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is most important in being able to work effectively together to help you get to where you need to. I appreciate it can feel daunting initially, so its important that you feel the space is a safe, comfortable and relaxed environment. 

The session cost is the same as normal rate and as with ongoing sessions is for 60 minutes. 

Prior to our initial session I will email you a copy of the New Client information which outlines all you need to know prior and a New client details form and PHQ9 form. 

Its an opportunity for you to ask me any questions and for me to explain how I work and what might be the most helpful next step which might be signposting to a more suitable or specialised therapist if I feel that would be in your best interests.

There is no pressure to decide there and then on any future sessions and it can be helpful to reflect on how it felt before committing. Its important that you feel comfortable and that I am the right person to help you.
