Day-time, evening and weekend sessions to suit

I’m a person-centred counsellor but have experience in providing other theoretical approaches too, depending on your personal needs. I use a collaborative therapeutic approach, helping you to find your own answers in a safe, confidential, non-judgemental space. 

The sessions are tailored to your unique challenges which might involve setting some goals at the outset, with reviews about your progress along the way. The idea of person-centred therapy is that you are in control of what you want to bring to the sessions without receiving advice and to develop a new perspective with provision of useful coping tools and strategies if necessary.

I offer remote therapy online via video or telephone. The sessions normally last 50 minutes and can be weekly or less frequent, for however long you require to find solutions and inner peace. I have very flexible availability, and I can offer weekend appointments too.

My main client strengths lie in anxiety/depression, trauma/domestic abuse, relationship/intimacy issues and loss/bereavement. However, I have experience in counselling for a wide range of problems.  Like many counsellors, I have been on my own personal journey to finding clarity and knowledge, and I am passionate to help you be the best version of yourself too.

If you are interested to know more, then we can discuss your needs over the telephone during a free consultation and discover whether you feel that you can engage with me in a therapeutic relationship. 

I look forward to hearing from you.
