Our work together can provide a place to help with emotional distress, conflict and argument, anger, trust, esteem and confidence, connection and trauma, amongst many others issues. Unpacking some of the more difficult, complex feelings in a safe and supportive environment.

Sessions build on and help communication patterns, focusing on root cause and positive change. I specialise in how we relate and the feelings behind the behaviours.

7 Swans is a private relationship counselling practice offering individual wellbeing, relationship and relational trauma sessions.

What other clients have said; "I found the experience so helpful and it has made me think how I can change outcomes by using the new strategies."  Testimonial by H.V.

The service aims to provide an approachable and accessible service within the boundaries and ethical framework of professional practice.

Please note 7 Swans does not provide urgent MH crisis support.

An initial consultation provides an opportunity to find out more about how we might work together. If there is a fit in what you need and what can be provided, sessions go forward regularly, in weekly appointments.

I will ask the usual questions that help me assess and understand what you're looking for and invite you to tell me more about what you hope to get from the work. 

One key objective in this is to be sure these needs sit within my competencies. 

For our first ongoing session we will be draw up our contract together of what is expected from you and what I, as counsellor, asks for in return. 

**All sessions online, providing wider availability

I am an accredited counsellor in private practice, with extensive experience. I offer online sessions for your relationship and wellbeing needs.

Perhaps you're struggling with family difficulties, or stuck in unhelpful patterns with your partner, including the pain of separation or conflict and you're finding your current circumstance too much. Get in touch and we can set up a session together to start to unravel the difficulties.

Our relationships are such a big part of our lives. They naturally bring us challenges that cannot easily be ignored or pushed aside.

Our work together can provide a place to help with emotional distress, conflict and argument, anger, trust, esteem and confidence, connection and trauma, amongst many others issues. Unpacking some of the more difficult, complex feelings in a safe and supportive environment.

Sessions build on and help communication patterns, focusing on root cause and positive change. I specialise in how we relate and the feelings behind the behaviours.

Our work together will offer a range of techniques, drawing on my training in systemic family counselling, psycho-dynamic therapy, person-centred counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy and focusing-oriented psychotherapy.

How we work towards change is always different. Each individual, and relationship, finds its own way towards that positive change.

Ongoing sessions will be agreed following an initial session and agreement on suitability, availability and a needs/skills match.

For our first ongoing session we will be draw up our contract together of what is expected from you and what I, as counsellor, asks for in return. 

I hold a diploma in Integrative Supervision of Individuals and Groups and work with a focus on communication and relational trauma. 

My training includes a psychodynamic, existential and transactional approach. I’d be delighted to work with any integrative practitioners looking to develop a robust and ethical practice.

Supervision will take place online. Fees are £50 per 60 minute session or £70 per 90 minutes session. 

The fit between supervisor and supervisee is naturally fundamental. I'd be pleased to have an initial conversation to talk through expectations and agree a contract that works well for all.
