About me and my therapy practice
I am an accredited member of the BACP providing counselling one to one with adults and young people.
My training enables me to offer both short term and long term therapy depending on your needs.
In short term counselling, it helps to have a clear focus. I am qualified as a BPC accredited Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) practitioner, which is a recommended treatment in the NHS for general anxiety and depression.
DIT specifically looks at our relationships with those around us. It is believed that when we are able to deal with relationship problems more effectively, our psychological symptoms tend to improve.
Talking through what is troubling you can help gain a better understanding of issues you face and to find suitable ways of coping.
Practice description
I offer online and in person sessions providing a confidential place for you to explore your problems and what brought you to consider trying counselling in the first place. My practice is in a peaceful rural location just outside Maidstone, with private parking
I am able to offer evening sessions subject to availability.
My first session
It is important to feel comfortable with your counsellor, so an initial session is very important. It is an opportunity to get a grasp of what is going on for you, so there will be questions I need to ask and I am sure you will have questions to ask in return. It is also my aim to convey how I work ethically, protect your confidentially and your data protection rights.
At the end of the first session, there is no obligation for you to continue if you feel it is not the right option for you.
