Work With Me
I have different facets. I’m a counsellor, audiologist and trained sound practitioner who brings these different elements into the counselling room. My ‘uniqueness’ sets me apart from others and it allows me to work across different age groups and see people from all ‘walks of life’.
I have rich experience with Anxiety and Depression, Bereavement and Loss. Recently including baby loss and Clients living with cancer. These issues are not just limited to the above but often around transitions in life, certain feelings that are difficult to talk about with family or friends. I work clinically but hold a holistic view to see the whole person as an incredibly special individual. I offer warm, safe environment, free from threat, judgement or criticism. This is fully embracing what in counselling terms we call the Core conditions.
This is an honest compassionate space where you can be yourself, start to make sense of your world and work out where you fit.
The work is non-directive, giving you the choice of where to go in the counselling hour. If you want direction we can set goals, we can work creatively but my practice is about YOU, upholding respect and autonomy. This is essential if you are to feel comfortable in the therapeutic relationship and find the right counsellor to meet your needs. Feel free to email and ask any questions and I will do my best to answer them. Note my mobile is switched off during sessions, and the best way to contact me is to leave a voicemail or send an email where I can book you directly into a paid session.

Please note I have a variety of fees reflecting different working times and days along with a few reduced slots (20% reduction) as sliding scales for individual who struggle to meet the full fee. This needs to be discussed on first inquiry as very much depends on my availability before contracting and agreeing to work together.
Quieter periods offer Introductory Calls of 20 mins (free) via my Counselling Directory page but during busy counselling days may not offer these and go straight into paid sessions which require completed intake forms forming part of my assessment process (see pages on the website giving example of my intake questions and full fees).
