About me

Certified Transactional Analyst (Psychotherapist) offering:- Psychotherapy - Counselling - Psychotherapy Supervision.

Many of my clients are men and I have a special interest in working with men and issues that affect a man’s mental, emotional or psychological well being and of course I work with women too. If you are considering therapy do call me 07768 134537

As a psychotherapist I offer a safe, secure and non judgmental place in which you can be heard and be felt to be heard and seen. Whatever the issues are that you bring I am here to help you feel better in how you live your life. I place a great deal of importance on my therapeutic relationship with clients, for it is through this trusting relationship that healthy and lasting change occurs.

I am very willing to talk with you on the phone (free of charge) before you decide to make an appointment. There may be questions you have about how counselling and psychotherapy work and what to expect.

How Much & How Often?

Typically a first session would allow me to hear what you would like help with and gives you the chance to see who I am and get a feel for how I work. I see clients weekly and sessions are one hour. Sometimes if there is a specific need I will see clients twice a week. My fees are £80 per session.

So what is therapy?

Therapy is a process where through talking and building a secure, trusting, safe and confidential relationship I help a client make their own sense of what in their life may have bought them to the place they are now. It is not easy to describe precisely how therapy works and there is a vast amount of research that shows it can be extremely helpful
