Profile
Whether you are experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, having difficulties with relationships or experiencing loss, talking to someone can help you make sense of your feelings. Together we can find a way to boost your self-confidence, empowering you to make informed choices about your path in life. Everyone is unique. Only you as an individual can know what is right for you. The key is to unlock that knowledge and through person-centred counselling you can gain the tools you need to make positive changes in your life.
I offer a free 30 minute initial assessment session which is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and see whether we feel happy to work together. I am aware that you may be feeling a little anxious and I will do my best to reassure you and help you feel at ease. Having had my own therapy, I have an understanding of how you may be feeling. If you decide to begin counselling, we would normally agree to meet for 6 sessions and then look at where we were.
Counselling sessions last for 50mins and I provide a confidential and safe environment for sessions to take place. Everything we discuss during our sessions is confidential unless we talk about risk of serious harm to yourself or others. In this case we would normally discuss disclosing this to someone such as a GP. I attend regular monthly supervision in which I discuss client issues but my supervisor is unaware of my clients' identity. Supervision is important in order to keep both myself and my clients safe and supported.
My person-centred approach means that you will always be in control of what you bring to the session. Counselling is about exploring our feelings and trying to make sense of them, not about giving advice. By working together we can find a way forward.
Please do contact me if you feel I can be of help.
