About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I'm Val
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile listing.
It is such a brave step to reach out and ask for help and I would like to be your helping hand if that works for you. I cannot promise to fix things, but I can listen and give you a warm, therapeutic, non-judgemental space where you can hear yourself, and this can be surprisingly powerful.
Practice description
There are so many different types of therapists, and different modalities work for different clients. I am person-centred in that I feel you know what you have tried and tested, however I am also integrative, which gives flexibility to our sessions and I can draw on different modalities if this feels that it may be beneficial to our therapeutic work together.
I am a former Childline Counsellor volunteer and have volunteered as a School Counsellor at a secondary school in Leicester, as well as counselling adults with a charity. I counsel young people, approximate ages 14-25 and my speciality is autism. I also counsel autistic individuals outside of this age range.
My first session
Upon emailing me, I offer a free, initial 15 minute telephone call, where we can explore what has prompted you to get in touch, and if you feel you would like to work with me.
I also have a registered therapy dog which can be included in our in-person sessions if this is something which you may like.
I can provide telephone counselling, or in-person around Rugby, Coventry, Leamington or Warwick areas.
My sessions are £55.00 each, payable in advance via Cash or BACS.
Thank you for reading my words and if you feel you would like to get in touch, I look forward to hearing from you. Take care of yourself.
