What is counselling?
Counselling is a way of addressing issues and problems by talking them through with someone who is supportive, but who is not involved in the situation. You can talk privately and confidentially with me about your experiences and feelings in a way that may not be possible with family and friends. You know yourself and your life better than anyone else: this is the belief at the centre of the school of counselling in which I am trained - Rogerian therapy.
By putting your thoughts and feelings into words with a counsellor can allow you to examine them from other angles. This can help you to find different ways of thinking about what is going on and where you want to go within your life.
Initial session
Finding the right therapist for your journey is very important. Our first meeting together is an opportunity to see if you feel comfortable talking with me. It will provide you with an insight into the experience of therapy and enables you to ask any questions you may have about the process, it’s understandable to feel nervous whether you are new to therapy, or even if you aren’t.
Wherever you are, I will meet you there.
Feel free to send me an email or call 07530 186643 and we can discuss what you would like from therapy and this will also enable you to ask any questions or queries you may have about the process.
If you're happy to continue, we'll arrange to see each other at a convenient and agreed time, suitable for us both.
