Counsellor Profile

I am a UKCP registered psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist and trained at the WPF; I work with individuals who are experiencing emotional problems in a variety of areas. Psychodynamic counselling is based on the idea that experiences and relationships from the past can affect the way that we live our lives in the present. The process helps you to reflect on your response to life events and how you relate to yourself and to other people, and to begin to explore and understand the part unconscious influences may play in this. Through gaining more self-awareness and understanding, the aim is to help you to find better ways of coping with difficulties and begin to consider how change might come about.

Fees

The fees for the sessions will be discussed at the first meeting and range between £35 and £45.

I also offer a limited number of reduced fee spaces for those on low incomes.

Extra Information

If you would like to book an initial consultation then please contact me either by telephone or email to arrange an appointment. I will try to respond within 24 hours. The initial session is longer than usual - about 90 minutes - and provides an opportunity to talk through your reasons for seeking counselling at this time and to discuss any questions or doubts you may have, and enables us to think about whether psychodynamic therapy can be of help to you.

If you decide you want to continue, we will make an agreement to meet at the same time each week - these sessions last for 50 minutes each.
