I currently have availability.

How can I help?  

Counselling works best when you find someone who understands your story, who makes you feel seen and safe. This is the relationship I seek to create, whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship breakdown, life transitions, (parenthood to retirement), bereavement or other forms of loss, (the hope of parenthood, miscarriage or affairs).

It can be hard to reach out for help and to take time for you but therapy is a space to explore what is dominating your thoughts and feelings. Working at your pace, I can help you gain a greater sense of clarity and acceptance.

I am a warm, highly engaged, and calm therapist. Since research shows that the relationship we form is the biggest determinant of effective therapy, I offer a free introductory call to help you decide whether I am the right person for you.

As a relational integrative therapist, (FdSc Counselling (Greenwich), I use a blend of therapy, (person centred, psychodynamic, transactional analysis, gestalt) to tailor my approach to you personally, whilst seeking to provide a safe, trusting, non-judgemental relationship.

I offer face to face non-directive sessions with regular reviews to ensure that the therapy meets your specific needs. 

I work with adults, whether they be young or not so young!

I have worked as a Bereavement Counsellor in a local hospice for the past 2 years, supporting clients in their grieving process.

I also work at The Practice, (Guildford office), supporting those going through legal proceedings and specialising in secondary trauma for the legal profession.

It may help to chat before we meet so I offer a free  introductory phone call to explore what brings you into therapy and whether you feel comfortable to work with me.

Whether you need a few sessions to help you get your head round your present challenge, or longer term therapy, we can work that out together.  Our sessions can evolve as you need. 

In our first face to face session I will take some general background details to put our work in context but apart from that it will be up to you to choose how you use our time together.  

I maybe able to offer concessionary rates if you are a student or would otherwise struggle with my fees.  Please do talk to me about this.
