About me and my therapy practice

My therapeutic style is collaborative, human, and relaxed. I believe that the power of therapy can lay in a strong relationship between you and the therapist.

I will tailor the sessions and my approach to you. I will pull from different styles of therapy (this is called integrative therapy) and work alongside you to help you with whatever you bring.

I am not the type of therapist that will sit there silently politely taking notes (not that there is anything wrong with this if that’s what you want). I welcome the sharing of memes, pictures of your pets, and raw honesty. I want the space to be comfortable and safe for you, and your partner/s.

I work in a Trauma informed way i.e. addressing any barriers trauma may have given you, and I am kink, sex worker, and LGBTQIA+ friendly

Alongside this I have an innate capacity to hold people in places were others dare to tread, warmly, safely, and without judgment.

I provide online one to one, or relationship therapy. That may mean you are in a couple and I can see you both together.

Sessions are online, 50 mins. 50mins - 1hour (for couples +)

It’s a brave step to reach out and book a session, but if you are feeling brave reach out, book a session, grab yourself a cuppa, and lets have a chat.

Practice description

Counselling Can also be called therapy or Talking therapy for short. These words are often used interchangeably. I like to view it as you and me unravelling and exploring some issues, thoughts, and feelings in a supported and safe environment.

Sometimes we may hold a lot of answers within us but need the support to find them.

Sex Therapy: is a specialised form of psychotherapy that focus on sex, sexuality, and gender. These are vital elements of our physical, psychological, and social development, they impact all areas of our human experience, including how we view ourselves, those around us, and our world.

We may be looking at more specific issues, communication, painful sex, or erectile dysfunction. I may provide some homework and things to work on for yourself, or with partner/s.

Single person sessions are £80 per session

Couples + are £90 per session

Each session is online, or telephone (only for single therapy)

I work in a way that is 'open ended' that means that you can expect the sessions to end when that feels comfortable for us to do so. This will be discussed collaboratively as we go.

You may also want to book a specific number of sessions. I normally recommend up to x12 for this. 

My first session

The 1st session is a little bit of us getting to know each other. I will also be asking you to discuss your reasons for coming to therapy and your hopes for the sessions moving forward. 

I may ask you to complete an assessment. This is a few questions to check in on where you currently may be with your general mental health.
