What is your approach to therapy?

I have extensive experience working with people in a relational and personable way, encouraging clients to prioritise and place value on their well-being and needs.  I like to work with an emphasis on empathy, warmth, some humour and gentle challenge where appropriate...after all, the only person we can change is ourselves. 

​

My approach is to look at both the past and the present, and help you to bring about meaningful and lasting change for the future.

​

What will happen during the FREE introductory call?

I offer a free introductory 20 minute call, which is a chance for you to tell me about what's been going on for you, and you can ask me any questions you may have.  We can then decide whether I may be the right person to help you.  There is no obligation to book a session.  You are free to use this as an opportunity for you to make more sense of what you need.

What will happen during the first session?

The first session is where we can meet for an hour and you can elaborate further on what we discussed over the telephone.  At the end of this session, I will be able to let you know where I think the focus needs to be in the work, and we can decide together how best to move forward.

How many sessions will I need?

Therapy doesn't have to be a big commitment.  You can do what is typically referred to as a 'block' of sessions (around 6-8) and then return at a later date if you need to.  I also offer 'drop-in' sessions where you book only when you need to talk meaning that you get the support you need even if you can't currently commit to regular sessions. 

What about your four legged friends?!

As I live in the countryside the presence of four-legged friends kind of goes without saying!  I have two free-roaming cats and a cocker spaniel named Millie. Whilst all are very friendly please let me know if you are anxious around animals and I will ensure they wont bother us during our session.

*If you have allergies I would recommend conducting our session online rather than in person.
