About me
I offer individual and couples sessions, as well as supervision both group and individual.
Making the first step can be daunting. You are most welcome to telephone or email me with any questions you may have before we decide to meet. When we first meet we will look at what is troubling you and talk about practical arrangements such as fees and appointment time and day.
The sessions are 50 minutes long.
In a session I apply the use of creative techniques alongside talking. I may suggest a creative technique if appropriate, as an aid to the therapy. These could be working with movement, art, poetry. If you prefer to just talk that is fine.
