People seek therapy for many different reasons. You may be facing a crisis such as a relationship problem, a bereavement or you may be feeling anxious and lonely. You could be depressed and not really know why or maybe you are having trouble coping with something that happened in your past. Sometimes it is hard to explain why you feel the need to talk to someone. Whatever your reasons, I believe that the majority of issues can be explored and understood to enable positive changes to be made. 

After getting in touch, I may suggest that we have a brief telephone conversation before organising an initial session together.  This usually helps us to introduce ourselves and gives me a sense of what you need help with.

Next, the first session is an opportunity for us to meet (either in person or online) and explore further some of the issues you are seeking help with.  During this initial meeting, you will be able to talk about what is going on for you, in the knowledge that I will provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.  I aim to help you feel heard and validated no matter what you bring to this space. 

In this session, you will get a feel for whether I'm the right person for you and I will be making sure that I am the right therapist for you after hearing about your difficulties.  It is important that we are the right fit for each other and there is no obligation to continue if you don't want to.

In this session, we can find a mutually convenient time to meet weekly, whether that is face to face or online. I will talk through how I work and will ask you to sign a therapy contract outlining my terms and conditions.  There will be an opportunity for you to ask any questions before continuing.  I look forward to you getting in touch.

I currently have availability in my practice and look forward to hearing from you.

In supervision I offer a safe space to discuss, explore and reflect on any aspect of your clinical work.  Whether you are in training or have an established practice of your own, I work in a collaborative way; building awareness of the dynamics and interactions between you and your clients and supporting you in your development as an effective practitioner.  

I have an established practice with over 20 years experience and in supervision, I have worked with a range of modalities and theoretical backgrounds.   

Alongside working with supervisees individually, I have had several years experience of facilitating groups as a clinical supervisor for staff at a local hospice.  Similarly, I have also worked for several years as a group supervisor at West Kent Mind supervising counsellors in their clinical work with clients. 

I look forward to you getting in touch.

I offer supervision on a regular basis, whether that be every two weeks or monthly - my intention is to provide a consistent, reliable and supportive space to enable you to feel held in your work. 

Individual sessions are 50 minutes long. Please enquire if you are interested in group supervision.

Please do get in touch if you would like any more information.

I am happy to offer an initial session to explore if I am the right person for you at a reduced fee.
