How does counselling work?
It is really important that you find the right counsellor for you so that you feel safe and comfortable talking about what is troubling you. I offer a free initial phone consultation in order for us to talk and for you to tell me a little about the situation you are in and why you are looking for support. It is an opportunity for you to ask questions and decide if you feel comfortable and would like to work together.
If you decide to continue, we will agree a time for a weekly session. Each session lasts 50 minutes. After 6 sessions we will talk about how you are feeling about how the work is going.
The aim of therapy is not for me to give you advice but for you to have a safe, caring and confidential space where you can talk about what is troubling you, take a step back and find some clarity.
I adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework which means I commit to working safely and professionally with you. I have regular monthly supervision, have full liability insurance in place. I also have an enhanced DBS certificate.
Prices are charged at £50 per session. I have a few concessionary spaces for those who are in financial need. Please ask if you would like to know more.
