Individual Counselling
Many will experience times in their lives when they may feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious or depressed, maybe it’s difficult to identify exactly what you are feeling. Life can be a complex journey which can leave you feeling isolated and lonely as you navigate your way through. Whatever it is that is drawing you to choose counselling, I offer you a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space to explore your challenges together. I am rooted in the person-centred approach where during our sessions you will be met with compassion and value to the person you are. During our sessions together, my role is to listen, support and sit alongside you as you explore the challenges and issue you face. My sessions are 50 minutes long and I offer short-term or long-term counselling, whatever best suits you.
Children and Young People Counselling
I work with children and young people from age 6 upwards. My sessions are client led meaning that the child/young person has complete autonomy on how they would like to use their session and what resources they may be drawn to using. During our sessions, younger children may explore feelings through artwork, play or reading stories whilst older children may prefer to sit and talk or a mixture of both. Building a trusting therapeutic relationship is important in helping the child/young person feel safe and able to explore difficult feelings and I will work at their pace to do so. To start our first session together, I will invite the parent/carer in and we will discuss what they would like to explore in counselling. I will explain how I work and answer any questions. We will then proceed with our session with the parent/carer waiting in a separate room, if the child/young person feels ok with this. The sessions are 50 minutes long and I can offer short-term or long-term counselling according to needs.
Online and Telephone Counselling
I am able to offer counselling sessions online or on the telephone. Before we begin our session I will check that you are in a private and quiet space, where you feel comfortable in being able to talk and share out loud without being overheard.
Our sessions will run similarly as if they were face-to-face. The sessions will be 50 minutes long and I offer short-term or long-term therapy, whatever feels right for you.
