About me and my therapy practice
There can be many reasons that bring people to counselling. Perhaps you would like to talk to someone about making changes in your life, or maybe you are feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed, and would like a little extra support to help you through a difficult time. Perhaps you are feeling lonely or disconnected from the people around you, or maybe you can't quite put your finger on what is wrong, and would like somewhere to express yourself and make sense of your thoughts and feelings?Practice description
I understand how facing our issues may be challenging; often taking courage, but I also know how incredibly rewarding it can be to feel free from whatever is troubling you. I can’t fix things for you, but I will offer a trusting, safe relationship, where we can explore and address the reasons that have bought you to counselling together. What ever is bringing you to seek help, I will always show you compassion and honesty in a non judgmental space.
Finding the right counsellor can be hard and so as well as a free 10 minute telephone consultation, I also offer an introductory session which is slightly shorter of 40 minutes for £12 so we can get to know each other a little, giving us both the opportunity to see if we're a good fit for the issues that have lead you to seek help.
I'm qualified as a Person Centred Counselor and Somatic Trauma Therapist, I also have additional training in Psychodynamic theory, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Play therapy and Family and Relationship counselling.
I’m trained in Breath Work and the Emotional Freedom Technique, which are great for calming anxiety and internal stabilisation, I also have training techniques for processing traumatic events, so we can look at traumatic or triggering events therapeutically in the most appropriate way for you.
My first session
I work in person from a dedicated therapy room in Maidstone, the rooms are accessible for everyone and we will meet in the same room each week. I also offer virtual sessions on a media platform of your choice. When you arrive at the center, there will be someone at reception to greet you and a reception area to wait in.
When you make contact I will arrange with you a convenient time to have a free 10 minute telephone consultation, following this you will be offered a 40 minute session for £12 so we can get to know each other a little. If you decide to book further sessions, which will be for the full time and price, I will send out some information for you to complete and return to me prior to our first full session.
