THERAPY
It is not unusual for people interested in therapy to be self-aware but find themselves repeating patterns that cause them difficulties of varying kinds. It is also not uncommon for people to have considered therapy for some time, feeling unsure whether it could be of help. Others have had therapy before, and they now seek in-depth psychotherapy as their circumstances have become more settled, allowing for sustained reflection.
Therapy provides a regular space to explore concerns and difficulties, including thoughts, beliefs and feelings about oneself. Therapy can help people reflect on their past experiences and earlier relationships and how these may continue to shape their current lives.
Increased awareness of personal and relational difficulties can provide new insight and perspective, as well as a renewed sense of agency, empowering people to identify what they may need to change to lead more fulfilling lives.
How I work
I believe in a collaborative and respectful approach that allows troubling issues to be explored over time. I aim to listen attentively and communicate thoughtfully to help people address the areas of difficulty that led them to seek my help.
Sessions
Each session lasts 50 minutes and takes place on the same day and at the same time each week, either in person or online.
Sessions can be held weekly or more frequently, depending on the individual's specific needs, preferences, and mutual availability.
Fees
Fees start at £70 per session and £70 per consultation.

Initial Consultation
If we meet for an initial consultation, it will be an opportunity to discuss the issues that have led you to seek therapy, as well as consider the possibility of working together.
This meeting will give you a sense of what it might be like to work with me and help us determine whether I could be a good fit as a therapist for you.
If you would like to speak with me before setting up an appointment, I am happy to have a brief (15 to 20-minute) telephone conversation.
