About me and my therapy practice

I am an Integrative Counsellor with Person-Centred Therapy at the core of what I do. I provide a safe space for clients to share and process their thoughts, feelings and behaviours, free from judgement and without agenda. 

I work at the clients pace allowing them to set the frequency of sessions, initially this is usually weekly or fortnightly but understand that this may not always be possible for clients. 

I am trained in CBT techniques along with Parts Work - where we look at the different parts of the whole being. 

I have additional training and extensive experience of working with neurodiverse clients, both adults and young people. 

I aim to make the counselling room a space that meets their needs to allow effective processing of events and emotions to take place. 

Practice description

When attended counselling the sessions are led by the client unless this is not appropriate, in these circumstances I will work with the client to set goals for the sessions and plan relevant interventions where needed.

I work creatively and use a wide range of tools e.g guided imagery, breath work and play, to help connect with the client and ensure they are supported and safe throughout their counselling journey. 

My first session

Within the first session you will be asked to complete a contract, to include; contact details, emergency contact, G.P details and any information specific to the client i.e (only send text messages).

Young people will also be asked to complete the YP Core (assessment of well-being and safety).

We will talk through what has brought you counselling and what you hope to gain from attending the sessions.

This first session is a great opportunity for us to meet and share information, for you to decide if you would like to continue sessions with me. 

At this point I may suggest a referral to additional services which may be useful and can provide support for you access these.
