About me and my therapy practice

I am a fully qualified humanistic professional counsellor and my sessions are client led, which means you can bring whatever issues you wish to explore each session.

My work provides a space where you can be heard, reflect and explore your feelings in a safe, warm and non judgmental environment. Your thoughts and feelings have a major impact on your life and how you live it. 

We will work towards creating clarity and a fresh perspective which can be applied to numerous issues which may be troubling you.  

Practice description

I can deliver therapy sessions in person or remotely (via telephone or online). My practice can also offer long term or short term therapy.

Most issues which bring people to counselling are affected by other issues in the client’s history such as traumas or difficult childhood experiences; for this sort of work, long term therapy is usually the most effective.

However, research shows that short term therapy can be effective too when focused on a particular issue.  

My first session

During our first session I will need to record some information about what has brought you to counselling, medical and historical information in addition to how we contact each other.

We will also go through our agreement to work together to establish a clear understanding of what counselling is, what you are hoping to get from therapy and how I work.

Everyone’s counselling journey will be different and there are a variety of different reasons which may have brought you to counselling.

It is important during our initial session to get a sense of one another and agree the best way to move forward in the counselling work.
