About me and my therapy practice

I am an integrative counsellor offering talking therapy focused on you and your needs.

Sometimes this will mean providing a safe place to openly discuss your concerns and difficulties without judgement and sometimes this will be providing solutions and guidance around practical elements to help overcome your concerns and difficulties, depending on what best suits your needs.

Practice description

I work online via remote sessions. Sessions would take place either via telephone call, Google Meet video or FaceTime/Whatsapp Video/Audio Call whichever you prefer. 

With children/young people who struggle with remote sessions, sessions with often then take place in a school or community setting around Preston.

I work in person in Preston, mainly on Monday/Thursdays at present

My first session

I offer a free introduction call which usually lasts around 15 minutes. This call s to gather a sense of each other, to gain basic information from yourself and to discuss whether or not we are the right therapeutic match and if our availability matches.

We would then arrange a first session where will go over the counselling contract and gain a deeper understanding of your concerns and background. 

Providing we are a good match and I can meet your needs we would continue to have sessions at a frequency that works best for you and will review regularly.
