Therapy 

​​It is not uncommon for individuals seeking therapy to be self-aware yet find themselves repeating unconscious patterns that create challenges. Some may contemplate therapy for a while, uncertain if speaking with someone beyond friends and family could be beneficial. Others might have experienced brief counselling and are now pursuing more in-depth psychotherapy as their lives have settled, allowing for deeper introspection and reflection.

 

Therapy can enhance understanding of complex emotions, internal and past experiences, relationship issues, and various other aspects of life. It can also promote a renewed sense of agency, empowering individuals to confront challenges and make meaningful changes in their lives.

How I work

I aim to foster a collaborative, respectful therapeutic relationship with my clients and, over time, facilitate thoughtful exploration of troubling feelings and sensitive personal issues.

I aim to listen attentively and communicate mindfully, helping individuals reflect on the areas of difficulty that led them to seek therapy with me. 

​​​​

​​​​​​​​​Sessions​

Each session lasts 50 minutes and takes place at the same time each week.

​​​​​​​

I provide sessions once weekly and more frequently in person and online. 

 

​​​If you become interested in more frequent sessions during your therapy, we can discuss this option. However, I cannot guarantee mutually suitable times will be available.  

Fees​​​

Fees start at £70 per session/initial consultation. 

 

​​How to Get Started

Please either email me or use the contact form below to send an enquiry. I aim to respond within 24 hours, Monday through Friday.​​

​​​​​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Initial Appointment

The initial appointment is an opportunity for us to meet to discuss the issues that led you to contact me and to consider the possibility of working together. The fee is £70.

 

We may agree to meet two or more times before deciding on the way forward, depending on your circumstances. These meetings will give you a sense of what it might be like to work with me and help us determine whether working together could potentially be helpful for you.

​​​

If you would like to speak with me before setting up an appointment, I am happy to have a 15 to 20-minute telephone conversation. ​

 

​...........

Please note that I do not currently offer therapy to counselling or psychotherapy trainees; however, I work with qualified clinicians and practitioners. 

 

Furthermore, I do not provide therapy services or consultancy through insurance companies, Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs), or therapy subscription platforms.
