About me and my therapy practice
Imagine what it would be like to have emotional freedom? What if you no longer had to endure stress and anxiety, but instead, be able to experience life through emotional resilience and prioritising your own needs first?
Counselling is an investment, allowing you to increase self-awareness and establish the tools needed to manage emotionally challenging situations. I have supported clients to establish healthy and assertive boundaries with others, as well as to fully appreciate their own value and sense of worth.
Our sessions will be an opportunity for you to explore the areas of your life that you find the most distressing or challenging. Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, fearful, shameful, conflicted or confused - I will be present with you, supporting your journey of exploration, discovery and empowerment.
My approach involves working collaboratively with you to address any needs or goals that you have in your sessions. This will involve understanding the issues you bring in therapy and where necessary, digging a bit deeper into what avenues there are into overcoming or managing the difficulties you are facing.
Perhaps you have no specific goals and you just want someone to truly listen to you and offer empathy - I will always be guided by what you wish to bring in each session.
Practice description
I offer online or telephone counselling. This ensures that you have a comfortable and accessible space to access our sessions.
I offer a no-obligation, 20 minute initial consultation. This gives us the chance to meet and for you to share what you would like to get out from counselling. I can also explain a bit more about how I work as a therapist.
After the initial consultation, I will send a counselling agreement, which outlines how our sessions will be managed. I also send a questionnaire to better understand how any anxiety or stress is impacting you on a daily basis. We can then begin our sessions together, should you wish to go ahead.
Although my practice is not limited to any particular issue, my areas of interest mainly relate to low self-esteem, ‘people-pleasing’, external validation, negative thoughts and challenging perceptions.
My first session
Our first session will allow you to talk through what is causing you the most distress or concern. You will have the space needed to expand upon any issues or outcomes you want to achieve through therapy.
Perhaps you simply feel down, depressed or overwhelmed and don't know where to begin - we can start with that and take it from there, one step at a time.
I ask clients to sign an agreement before our sessions begin, as this contains important information about the terms of the sessions. I also ask clients to complete a brief assessment form and questionnaire, to better understand the daily impact of your distress on your life experience.
