About me

If you are looking for a counsellor to help with Couples Counselling, Anger Management, Depression, Bereavement, Anxiety, Sex & Sexuality or Addictions, I can help you look at the issues involved and will work with you on finding solutions to your current problems. I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and a Certified Transactional Analyst (CTA).

Additional training in other therapies (listed below) allows me to tailor counselling or therapy to your particular needs.

I am happy to discuss your needs and how the types of therapy I offer can help you in a 15 minute free telephone consultation.

I also offer counselling and psychotherapy via Skype for those who are geographically further away or find the convenience of it useful.

Additional information

Sessions are available Mon-Fri 10am - 5pm
Some evening sessions are also available.

All sessions are 45 minutes in length plus 15 minutes is allocated outside of the session to thinking about the session and writing notes about anything that may be useful for the next session.  Unlike most therapists I share my session notes with the client if I feel it would be therapeutic to do so. This is a style of working very transparently that I call Open Therapy.
