Availability

I currently have availability for face-to-face, telephone and/or online counselling.
I work on the first floor but my workplace has a Stannah stair lift.
My working hours are Monday-Friday and can include some evenings.

About me and my therapy practice

Initial meetings can take place online or by telephone to determine whether we feel we can work together; there is no charge for this assessment.
Counselling sessions are about 50 minutes long and usually take place weekly, but this can vary.
When we meet, in order to plan, we estimate how many sessions may be required and then review this regularly.
Sessions are paid for in advance and I require at least 24 hours' notice of cancellation. If I receive due notice, any fee paid already will be refunded or used for subsequent sessions. Without due notice fees are retained.
After two missed appointments without explanation, I will assume that you are not yet ready for counselling and cancel any further appointments.

Practice description

I am a Person-centred counsellor, which means that my sessions are led by my clients; you choose how you wish to present yourself and what you wish to talk about. But, as I was trained as a psycho-dynamic counsellor, I sometimes integrate aspects of this philosophical perspective into my counselling when I feel that my client might benefit from it; this means that if you are willing, we may explore your past in case it has a bearing on your present.
I do not have any preconceived ideas about how you will be, what you will bring, how you will express yourself; the time is yours to be used as suits you best.
I am a Relate-trained counsellor and specialise in Couple Counselling.
I also trained with a Psychologist for Older People in counselling older people.
I am trained in trauma counselling particularly relating to rape snd sexual abuse.

My first session

In the first session, I will go through a Counselling Contract with you. I will have sent you a copy in advance and when we are agreed about its contents, we will both sign two copies so that we each keep a signed copy.
The purpose of the Contract is to determine from the outset how we will work together; we discuss it when we meet so that you can ask questions about it and we can agree changes if necessary.
The contract covers topics such as:
Time
Cost
Confidentiality
Attendance
