About me and my therapy practice
I am currently offering face to face and online appointments for counselling and supervision.
I am a qualified BACP Accredited Counsellor and Family/Systemic Practitioner and I have been practising for over twenty years. I offer a talking therapy and/or creative therapy to children, adults, young people and families. My approach to counselling is ‘Client-Centred’ having been trained in a number of modalities; Psychodynamic, Person-Centred, Existential, CBT and as a Family Systemic Practitioner. I believe it is firstly the relationship between counsellor and client(s) which provides the foundation to explore, understand, challenge and change patterns of behaviour which are causing relationship difficulties and personal distress.
I work with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, couples and families.
I am also a qualified clinical supervisor and offer one to one and group supervision sessions.
Practice description
I work with young people (7-25 years), individual adults, families and couples.
I have been in practice since 2000 and have worked with a wide spectrum of personal issues.
I use the first session as an opportunity to see how we can work therapeutically. There is no expectation to commit to ongoing sessions before we have had our first session.
My first session
I offer a free 15 minute introductory consultation.
The first full session is charged at the session rate and will provide an opportunity to see if we are the right 'fit' therapeutically. Relationship and trust are key issues for successful therapy and we can discuss your expectations in the first session.
