About me and my therapy practice

I am a counsellor & psychotherapist  with a sensitive and respectful  approach.  I offer a compassionate space to explore complicated and painful feelings and help you find a way forward. 

Life events have a way of stirring up internal often unconscious vulnerabilities. I help clients identify and make sense of their internal struggles so they can better manage and take steps to overcome them.

Practice description

I like to build strong therapeutic  relationships with my clients based on trust and understanding.  No two people have the same experience.  I  help you access hard-to-reach feelings,  explore the root cause of your pain and empower you to overcome your vulnerabilities and struggles.

Past experiences and early family relationships shape us and influence the way we relate to others, experience the world and negotiate life's challenges.

In therapy we will explore:

  • The way your past impacts your present (particularly in the form of early family dynamics)
  • Your relationship patterns and attachment style
  • Thoughts and behaviours which  lie outside your conscious control 
  • Repetitive patterns in the way you think and feel which may be self-sabotaging
  • The underlying cause of your symptoms

My first session

Initial Call (15 minutes) I offer a free call-back  to discuss your counselling needs and give you the chance to ask questions. 

Assessment (90 minutes) This is a 'structured' and extended session to  understand what brings you to therapy.   We discuss  your expectations  and I ask questions to gain insight into   your personal history. The assessment  allows us  to see  if we feel comfortable working together.  (£90)

Weekly sessions (50 minutes) We agree  a weekly fixed session time. (£70)

Concessions  I offer low-cost fees for students over 18 & individuals on low incomes.  Assessment cost £50, weekly sessions £35. Please enquire, spaces are limited.
