I want my practice to be flexible to meet your needs and can usually find a time for most clients.  Whilst I know it works well for many clients to come along weekly, there is no obligation to do so or to commit to a set number of sessions with me.  

Are you struggling to cope with thoughts going round and round in your head and there seems no way out of them? Maybe you feel anxious or sad or angry and are having the same arguments or doing the same things over and over again and it is not getting you anywhere. Perhaps you have been overwhelmed with well-meaning advice from friends and family and lost sight of how you see things. Our sessions can help you understand what is happening and help you manage.

Your sessions will be unhurried, calm and friendly, giving you the opportunity to relax and look at what you find difficult. Feeling comfortable and trusting me is important. For people with neuro-diversities such as ADHD or ASD, this affirmation of who you are and how you see things is crucial.

Often just having someone to listen openly, offering other perspectives and without judging us, can be so helpful in finding ways forward. If you have any questions about my Counselling or would like to discuss an appointment, please just get in touch.  

Couples Counselling looks to strengthen your relationship: whether you are having particular difficulties currently or are seeking ways to deepen your connection. Sometimes Counselling can also help couples to part more easily. If you are considering Couples Counselling, both partners need to contact me directly so that I know this is what you both want, and I have permission to get in touch.

I offer affordable, flexible counselling from an upstairs room in my home which has easy parking just outside. My room is calm and quiet allowing you space to talk freely. 

For individual clients who prefer shorter sessions, there is the possibility of a one-hour initial session followed by 30-minute appointments over Zoom.

You can begin to feel comfortable talking to me and get a sense of whether my counselling will be helpful.

I will tell you a little more about how I work, and you can ask any questions you may have. We will look at what you are hoping to gain from sessions and what might have helped or hindered previously. From there I will ask for a little more background information so we can start to see whether and what support networks are in place for you. By the end of the session, we will both have a common understanding of what has brought you to Counselling and may have begun to work together.
