Availability

I am a counsellor based in Wokingham, and I welcome clients from the surrounding areas of Berkshire, Reading, Bracknell, Windsor, Maidenhead, and Ascot. I am also happy to work with clients from across the UK through online sessions.

I offer face-to-face appointments in Wokingham. I work from the Wokingham Therapy Clinic, which is a relaxing and pleasant setting for your therapy sessions. I also offer online counselling for those who need or prefer it, providing the convenience of accessing therapy from your own home (or another chosen place) anywhere in the UK, without the need to travel.


About me and my therapy practice

I am a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ-registered, Trauma-informed Therapeutic Counsellor committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental environment for personal growth. My approach nurtures self-awareness, self-compassion, and holistic well-being. We will build a trusted relationship where you will find acceptance and respect.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, lost, stuck, or facing a crisis, seeking support is a brave step forward. Therapy provides a unique space, free of distractions, to explore your difficulties, share your burdens, and find greater balance and peace.

With 30 years of experience working with children, adults, and families, I offer counselling for both young people and adults. I support clients facing a wide array of personal and psychological challenges. It's not about categorising issues as big or small; if something is important to you, it becomes important to me. Your feelings and experiences matter, and together, we will explore and address whatever occupies your thoughts, acknowledging its impact on your life and journey toward well-being. Therapy offers valuable insight and clarity, enhancing your connection with yourself and others.

I believe in the transformative power of counselling. It helps navigate life's challenges and serves as a proactive tool for self-discovery. Therapy often reveals patterns of thinking, feeling, relating, and behaving. With the support of a trusted therapist, these discoveries become opportunities for gaining deep personal insights. This understanding ignites curiosity and leads to significant and sometimes unexpected transformations. Such gentle challenges and supported explorations are crucial pathways to personal growth. Furthermore, therapy is not just for moments of crisis; it's a way to engage with and understand your identity, purpose, and direction. It provides a space to address challenges before they become overwhelming, facilitating a journey of self-discovery that enriches your entire life experience.

Practice description

Sessions are 50 minutes and held weekly. Counselling can be short-term or long-term, a one-time experience, or an ongoing part of your self-care routine. It’s an investment in yourself and your future.

I offer both brief therapy and long-term therapy. Open-ended work allows us to explore more in depth, providing greater insight and personal growth.

For those beginning their journey in therapeutic practice, I also provide therapy to counselling students, helping them prepare for their future roles as therapists.

My first session

I offer a 15-minute Zoom or telephone call to discuss your circumstances and hopes for therapy. This initial conversation will allow us to explore what brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain from it. It's also an opportunity for you to see if we would work well together and to ask any questions you might have about my approach and the way I work.

During this call, we will discuss available times to suit your schedule, and you can decide if you would like to book a session. I invite you to visit my website for additional information.

To ensure that we work safely and ethically together, I ask that you complete a counselling agreement before we begin our sessions.
