My counselling sessions

My therapeutic approach

My approach is all about you. A lot of our work together will focus on your values and what you hold dear; how you perceive your life and other people in it; how you have come to believe the things that you do; and how you interpret the words and actions of those around you, so we can find out what is undermining you presently. If you have a mental health issue, we will look at how it might have come about and how it is impacting on you, as well as how it can be dispelled. We will look at your future; what you think would be your ‘best life’; identify the things that are preventing it from being realised and establish the best way of overcoming them.

My therapeutic approach is integrative – I deploy the counselling styles that I consider most fruitful for each individual client, although I use the person-centred counselling model as the basis of that integration.

Bespoke counselling

I offer bespoke counselling services to those aged 16 and above. It might be necessary to see you frequently or, say, only once a month, dependent on your concerns and their impact on you. It might be necessary to see you more at the beginning than towards the end of therapy. I can accommodate any of these options, according to your own specific needs. We will work together, to understand what they are.
