I am an integrative counsellor, which means I work using the person-centred approach (following your lead – you’re the one in control) and bring in other modalities to support you to look at what may be causing you difficulties at this time.
This means the support is tailored around you and what you need. One of the hardest aspects of therapy, is accepting that we need support and then reaching out to find it. We’ll work together, looking at the challenges you’re facing, as I provide a safe and accepting space that encourages you to look at different perspectives.
The relationship between counsellor and client is a unique one. It’s important to feel held, respected and cared for and believe that your counsellor has your very best interests at heart. Not everyone will give you this sense, so it is crucial to keep searching until you find someone who does.
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation, after which we can meet for an initial session and if, after this, you’re happy to work with me we can commit and contract for our further sessions.
I have experience of working with anxiety, depression, autism, behavioural issues, stress, menopause and bereavement.
As a trained mediator I also have experience of family conflict and relationship issues. I have a good understanding of ethical non-monogamy and alternative lifestyles.
Because I am in my final year of training, sessions are charged at £30 for 50 minutes.
