About me and my therapy practice

I am a psychodynamic counsellor and work privately from my home. The counselling room is on the ground floor and easily accessible. There is also ample parking. I work with the whole person and you are welcome just as you are. I believe that being able to form a safe and trusting relationship is the most important part of our work together and so our initial consultation is a chance for us to access whether we both feel we can work together. We can also think about whether long term or short term work will suit you best.

Practice description

Life can be puzzling: why do I keep doing the same thing when I know it isn't best for me? Why do I respond in this way when I really don't want to? The roots of our behaviour are often layed down in our earliest days and years, before we have the capacity for language and so while they manifest themselves on an often daily basis we are not necessarily aware of them. At Two Minds Together Counselling we can think together about what has brought you to therapy and perhaps start to make sense of some of the puzzles. Understanding what has unconsiously been driving you can make life less puzzling and give you a clearer picture of who you truly are.

My first session

When you initially contact me, I will return your phone call/email as quickly as I can. We can have a chat via phone or zoom/teams when you can explain what brings you to counselling and what you want to get from it. We will arrange an initial consultation which is the same price as a counselling session but lasts for about 90 mins. Preferably this would be in the room with me. During this consultation it is your opportunity for you to tell me about yourself in more detail; about your immediate and perhaps extended family; significant events in your life; memories of childhood - the list is endless and driven by you. By the end of the consultation, you will probably have decided whether or not you feel able to work with me and I will know if my skills are right for you. If so then we will arrange a time for ongoing sessions. I look forward to meeting you and welcome you with all my heart.
