Availability

I do have availability for new clients, so if you are interested in working with me, please get in touch. This will probably need to be online, but we can discuss. 

About me and my therapy practice

Life is full of challenges and change. You may feel unable to cope with what's been thrown at you. Perhaps you're anxious, or panic-stricken, or depressed. 

When times are hard and things appear overwhelming, counselling can help. Counselling offers you a safe space in which to discuss your problems, explore possible answers if there are any, work through painful memories and experiences and come to a greater sense of equilibrium. 

I'm a 'person-centred' counsellor with over twenty years of experience, particularly in working with anxiety, panic and depression. I welcome the  LGBTQ+ community and have worked with many gay men. 

Practice description

Perhaps you feel stuck, or that time is passing you by and you have little to show for it. Perhaps you are wondering, is this it? Perhaps you feel 'not good enough', or depressed, or anxious or even panicky.

So many situations can be hard - a job that doesn't feel right, a difficult relationship, being single, starting at university, bereavement and sickness in the family, or any kind of loss. 

Counselling offers you a safe space in which to discuss these kinds of problems and the feelings they bring up. Together we look for ways of moving forward that feel right for you.

In counselling you won't be judged for what's happened or given simplistic answers. There also won't be the impact on your friends or family, which there might be if you discussed things directly with them.

I know that some things are very hard to talk about, but counselling with me is accepting and non-judgmental. My approach is warm and thoughtful and we only go as far - or as fast - as you feel is right for you.

Each counselling session is a chance to explore how you feel, to work out why things are as they are and to see what needs to be different. You may notice patterns that repeat themselves in your life. Together we'll come up with ideas to resolve how you feel.

Taking that first step and getting in touch can be hard, but it's worth it. I know from my former clients and from my own experience in seeing a counsellor, that therapy really can make a difference.

My first session

Throughout the first session, we鈥檒l be getting to know each other and deciding whether to commit to working longer with each other. We鈥檒l also start work on what鈥檚 troubling you.

Before the session I will send you a copy of my Counselling Agreement and we鈥檒l talk through that, either at the start of the session or later on. I鈥檒l also explain about confidentiality.

For the bulk of the session, we鈥檒l look at what鈥檚 prompted you to get in touch at this time and work out what you are hoping to get out of counselling. I may ask about your life more generally and find out what kind of emotional support you have, either from friends or family. We鈥檒l look at how therapy works and what you can do to make the most of it. 

At the end of the session, we鈥檒l decide whether to have further sessions and I鈥檒l explain about the different options. Once again, you don鈥檛 have to decide this immediately. There鈥檚 no pressure. If you prefer you can go away and have a think about what you would like to do.

I do charge for the first session, at my usual rate.

Availability

I currently work remotely on Tuesdays and in-person on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. 

I do have some availability for new clients, so you are welcome to get in touch.

About me and my therapy practice

Are you feeling anxious or depressed, perhaps about work, money, or your relationships? Perhaps you feel isolated or scared about the future - or about the state of the world around us?

Counselling offers you a safe space in which to discuss these kinds of problems, find answers where they exist, work through painful memories and experiences and come to a greater sense of happiness and equilibrium. That may involve coming for just a few weekly sessions, or it may need longer-term exploration. 

I'm a 'person-centred' counsellor with over twenty years of experience. I welcome clients from diverse cultures and ethnic backgrounds, adults of all ages, as well as different genders, beliefs and sexual orientations. 

If you would like to know more, or to arrange a first trial session, do get in touch.  

Practice description

There are many different types of counselling and psychotherapy and when you just want some help, it can be confusing. I always aim to do what works best for you. This may include using specific techniques, for example Mindfulness and CBT, though my basic therapeutic approach is 鈥榩erson-centred鈥.

Person-centred therapy was started by Carl Rogers back in the 1950s. Carl Rogers saw counselling as a partnership (rather than a doctor-patient relationship) in which therapist and client work together for change and growth. He put forward the idea, which is commonly accepted today, that it鈥檚 the good therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client, which is the essential cornerstone on which successful therapy is built.

鈥淲hen I have been listened to and when I have been heard, I am able to re-perceive my world in a new way and to go on. It is astonishing how elements that seem insoluble become soluble when someone listens, how confusions that seem irremediable turn into relatively clear flowing streams when one is heard.鈥 鈥 Carl Rogers, the founder of person-centred counselling.

This kind of counselling is based on equality, trust and acceptance. It means that counselling is a safe space to express what you can鈥檛 talk about anywhere else, or have been unable to express before. Each counselling session is a chance to explore how you feel, to work out why things are as they are and to see what needs to be different. You may notice patterns that repeat themselves in your life. Together we鈥檒l look at both the recent past and much further back, so that you can understand your life better. Then you can work out what new choices you want to make and take action to improve your life.

My first session

Throughout the first session, we鈥檒l be getting to know each other and deciding whether to commit to working longer with each other. We鈥檒l also start work on what鈥檚 troubling you.

Before the session I will have sent you a copy of my Counselling Agreement and we鈥檒l talk through that, either at the start of the session or later on, whichever seems best. I鈥檒l also explain about confidentiality.

For the bulk of the session, we鈥檒l look at what鈥檚 prompted you to get in touch at this time and what you are hoping to get out of counselling. I may ask about your life more generally and find out what kind of emotional support you have, either from friends or family. We鈥檒l talk about how therapy works and what you can do to make the most of it. We鈥檒l also look at what your goals are from having therapy.

At the end of the session, we鈥檒l decide whether to have further sessions and I鈥檒l explain about the different options. Once again, you don鈥檛 have to decide this immediately. There鈥檚 no pressure. If you prefer you can go away and have a think about what you would like to do.
