About me and my therapy practice

I am a Â鶹ԭ´´ accredited Counsellor with several years' experience in counselling for different organisations.  I am currently working in private practice.

I originally trained in Psychodynamics and attended many hours of continuous Professional Development in CBT.  My knowledge of Psychodynamics has enabled me to help clients work through childhood difficulties and relationship problems. A  CBT  approach allows me to offer you a different perspective on your issues and so help you to cope and function better. 

I am happy to provide a listening ear if you just need to talk rather than looking for solutions.  Sometimes talking out loud to an impartial practitioner can help you to process your own material.

I am  open, warm and appreciate diversity and always prioritise individual clients' needs.  I work in collaboration and encourage feedback as work progresses so as to ensure you get what you need and want out of therapy. 

I adhere to Â鶹ԭ´´ Ethical Framework and Professional standards.  I believe in the importance of putting the client first but also making sure I have the relevant and appropriate training to help clients.  I respect individual and cultural differences.  I strive to be honest with clients if I feel you might benefit from being referred on to a more suitable therapy or organisation.

Together, through the therapeutic relationship, we can explore what is meaningful to you and what would help and would not help while keeping you safe.

I offer a non judgmental approach promoting client's autonomy.  I recognise your experience is yours so different from others' and unique.  I have integrity and wisdom.

Practice description

My approach is mainly based on Psychodynamics and CBT.  However, I have attended seminars in ACT and Positive Psychology and Solution focused Therapy hence, I tend to be integrative by pulling from different schools of counselling.

I will be taking notes during our sessions.  These are kept in my office under lock and key.  I am registered with ICO for Data Protection.  Any information I keep about you will be treated and stored in the strictest confidence.  As a member of Â鶹ԭ´´ I am required to keep accurate and appropriates notes of our work together.





My first session

The first session is always an assessment of your mental and physical health so as to give me an overview of where you are at the start of your counselling.  I will be interested in any medication you may be taking, your contacts with your GP or other mental health practitioners in the past to get a better understanding of your mental health history.

I will explain confidentiality limitations as in the case of suicidal thoughts or potential harm to others.

We will agree on the frequency and duration of your sessions and rates as well as the management of cancellations.
