About me and my therapy practice

​As we go through life we experience things that test, challenge and fundamentally change us. We might find ourselves feeling stuck, not knowing how to cope, or simply feeling lost and disconnected from ourselves and others around us.

Using a person-centred approach I offer counselling to support individuals dealing with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, work stress, bereavement, personal identity, trauma and abuse.

You might be feeling apprehensive about seeking counselling, but I'd like to reassure you that I offer a supportive space, in which we go at your pace. I am non-directive in my practice, which means I don't tell you what to do. Instead, I will help you explore your experience, and identify the areas that feel most important to work on, to help you find how to move forward in a way that works for you.

Practice description

I aim to offer every client a space that feels sufficiently safe to allow you to bring your truth and your authentic thoughts and feelings. There will never be any judgement. no matter what you're dealing with. You will always be accepted, wholly and unconditionally.

Ultimately, I take a caring interest in you, your experiences and what has brought you to counselling. I am invested in helping each and every client I work with to arrive at where they want to be in life, emotionally, psychologically and directionally. 

I currently offer online counselling and hope to soon be able to offer face to face counselling in York.

Counselling sessions are 50 minutes and cost £45.

It is important to me that counselling is accessible to everyone who feels they need support and therefore I have several concessionary slots at reduced cost. Please ask about this if the cost of counselling is a barrier for you.

I also offer reduced cost sessions to students of counselling and psychotherapy.

My first session

It is important to choose a counsellor with whom you feel comfortable. To help you experience what it might be like for us to work together, I offer a free initial 20-minute telephone conversation, during which you can bring any questions, concerns and specific goals you have around engaging in counselling.

I hope this approach gives you the chance to make an informed choice about whether you feel we are a good fit, and whether you would like to enter into therapy with me as your counsellor.
