Experiencing a deep and trusting professional relationship with a therapist, who has no part in your history, can be very freeing and provide a really supportive place to explore troubling and difficult situations and feelings. I offer that experience; focusing on your agenda and moving at a pace you feel comfortable with.

My role in this process is to help you find your own path through your concerns and on the way, guide you in exploring strategies to build and develop your inner resources, which you can then draw on in your future.

I adopt a person-centred approach which simply means we focus on what you want to talk about – after all, this is about you. My role is to truly listen, to better understand how life feels for you. I will ask questions that are designed to increase my understanding of your experiences and feelings.

What I won’t do is tell you that I know how you feel, tell you how you should feel or give you advice on how to fix it. I will stay right beside you as we work through whatever is troubling you. Through the process of counselling, we will explore ways to build your inner resources and develop individual and personal approaches that you can take into your future.

Before you decide if we would work well together, I offer a free initial session. This 30 minute meeting would not commit you to working with me; you might like to think of it a bit like taking a car for a test drive, see how it feels for you.

After that, sessions are 50 minutes every week from my therapy room in East Hanney. This is within easy reach of Abingdon, Didcot and Wantage.

If you have difficulty travelling to East Hanney, I’d be happy to discuss the option of working from your home. Please get in touch if you want to talk about this.
