My Approach
Person-centered Approach
As a person-centered counsellor I offer warm, confidential, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your feelings. I am committed to supporting you to explore your emotions and gain a better understanding of your experiences. I will not offer you advice or try to direct you, but we will work together to help you find a way forward.
​
I work with adults and elderly clients of any cultural backgrounds, offering long and short-term counselling sessions.
​
I understand opening up to someone new is quite daunting, I offer FREE 20 minutes initial telephone consultation as an opportunity for us to find out a little more about each other before deciding to book a counselling session and I can answer any questions you might have.
​
If you would like to book your initial consultation please contact me by phone, text, or email.

First Session
First Counselling Session
A trusting relationship between you and your counsellor is key to a successful therapy. It is really important that you feel comfortable opening up, so if after our initial consultation you do not feel I am the right counsellor for you, I will be happy making recommendations to other counsellors or services that will be able to help you.
​
If you decide we can work together, I offer telephone or online counselling sessions which lasts up to 50 minutes each. During our first session, we will go through the assessment to see where you are right now and what you would like to gain from the therapy. I will also go through the key points of our working agreement.

If you would like to know more please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
