My sessions are either Face to Face ,online (Zoom) or by telephone.I offer flexible hours on Mondays,Tuesdays and Wednesday mornings  and can also offer early evening sessions. 

It can be hard to make contact with someone new and find courage to seek therapy. I always arrange an initial session where we can explore what you need, your expectations and if you have any particular concerns about counselling .This can help you work out if I am right for you and indeed for me to see if I feel I can help. If you decide to begin therapy I offer regular 50 minute counselling sessions to give you space to gain a deeper understanding of  why you might feel the way you do .I will support you to explore your thoughts and feelings in safety. I can help you develop awareness of patterns from the past that may be effecting your life today and help you deal with distressing current symptoms offering coping strategies and tools to help you find ways to feel more in  control of  your present life.

In addition to my private counselling practice I also work as a counsellor for a local charity supporting parents adjusting to the twists and turns of family life.I also have over 45 years experience working as a nurse in the NHS ,I am familiar with the difficulties life throws us.

I offer one to one 50 minute sessions Face to Face ,online via zoom or telephone. My hours are Monday,Tuesday and Wednesday morning  also offering early evening sessions.

I see clients for short and long term sessions depending on your need. We will review our sessions together regularly to ensure you are getting what you need from therapy. Our relationship is key to the process, I offer safety, warmth and a non judgmental approach.

I am an integrative counsellor working  from a person centred base offering  you a safe, nurturing space to explore your thoughts and feelings. I also integrate Gestalt therapy , Transactional analysis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) , working  holistically using whichever type of therapy is most helpful for you and your individual situation.Please contact me for a chat if you think I might be able to help.

I offer an initial session free of charge up to 30 minutes this is usually by  phone call .We can use this time to  discuss your needs before you book an appointment. This gives you a chance to assess how you feel talking to me and if I might be able to help. If you feel comfortable with me we can then book a session.
