About me and my therapy practice
Counselling can often feel like the biggest and hardest step to take, but as Brene Brown once said “Vulnerability is the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity. It is the source of hope, empathy, accountability, and authenticity”. This is what The Sage Therapist aims to offer you within counselling sessions, the space and safety to be vulnerable and access various parts of yourself.
I have gained experience from working in women's centres and domestic abuse organisations where the main themes involve trauma and abuse. I have also trained in CBT and DBT, therefore, I can integrate this into your therapy should you wish to have more skills-based therapy.
Working together is a collaborative process and therefore I offer both short-term and longer open-ended work so that you have the amount of time you need. I work with adults and young people (16 and over).
I do offer some concessions; please request further information when you enquire.
Practice description
As a qualified integrative counsellor, I combine a variety of therapeutic approaches to provide a personal and effective relationship that supports getting your needs met.
I believe at the core of therapy is the relationship that we share therefore I will offer you a space to work collaboratively with me to ensure you have autonomy and trust. I hope sessions offer you a deeper understanding of yourself so that you can build self-esteem and new ways of coping with the stresses that life throws at you.
My first session
I offer a 15-minute complimentary phone or Zoom call, this is purely to get a sense of your expectations of therapy and needs. It is also an opportunity for you to see if I am the right therapist for you and ask any questions that you may have.
