About me
All enquiries by email please.
I do face to face counselling in a hired counselling room in Cardigan on Saturdays between 9am and 1pm and online counselling in the evenings of Tuesday to Friday.
Sessions last 50 minutes and cost £50 payable by cash, paypal or bank transfer within 7 days.
Having worked on the coalface as an alcohol, drug and homelessness worker becoming a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist was a natural progression drawing upon a rich life experience. My peers tell me that one of my best skills is the early development of the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client. This quickly allows you a safe place to work on whatever you wish to bring and so I look forward to meeting you with my focused, attentive style coupled with lots of curiosity, encouragement and warmth.
