About counselling

Counselling format

I offer both online and telephone counselling. I firmly believe that counselling needs to work for you. That’s why I also offer a flexible approach to sessions based on what suits you the most. While I encourage clients to attend weekly sessions, I also offer bi-weekly sessions if you feel this would suit you better.

My approach

As an integrative counsellor, the therapy I offer will use a mix of different approaches from the field. You will always have the space and time to be heard and listened to in our sessions. I will also tailor my approach to address any specific goals you may have.

Sessions will typically involve focusing on the present moment and exploring the feelings and any anxieties that are being experienced. Digging deeper into the feelings can help to better understand them, which may involve discussing the past in order to better understand how it has impacted the present. There is also the opportunity for us to look at solutions, including strategies and tools that can help you manage ongoing issues.

I will be guided by your needs in therapy. You will be offered a safe, confidential space to be listened to.

What to expect

We would start with a no-cost 20 minute initial consultation, which gives us the chance to meet and see if we would be a good fit together. During the consultation, I would be keen to understand what you would like to explore in future sessions. I usually ask some questions just to get an understanding of any specific issues you are experiencing. We can also explore whether there are any goals you would like to achieve from counselling.

Following this, I will send you a counselling agreement that sets out the terms of future sessions. There is also a questionnaire that allows me to better understand how any anxiety is impacting you on a daily basis. We can then begin our sessions together, should you wish to go ahead.
