About me and my practice

My counselling practice comes from my belief in the unique transformative power that every human being possesses. I provide you with an open space for exploration and creativity. I welcome any distress, confusion or pain you may be experiencing and will sit with you and provide support, reflection and new perspectives while you do whatever you feel you need to do.
I also welcome your joy, love and self-acceptance. We will meet in an unjudging therapeutic space and form a relationship which allows you to access new ways to express yourself and come to terms with what it is to be a human being.

Experience

I have experience working with people of a range of gender identities and sexualities (in my private work and in the past with the LGBTQ+ mental health charity MindOut) and work towards an inclusive and anti-racist practice. I am a trans and nonbinary ally and a feminist.

Additional Information

I offer one to one confidential therapy sessions that last fifty minutes. Currently I work with adults who are 18 and over. This can be for a fixed period, decided by you, or we can work together indefinitely and end when the time feels right. Sessions generally happen at the same time each week and I usually use Google Meet.

Initial Consultation

I offer a 15 minute call before a first session which is free of charge to see if I'm the right person for you to talk to, or we can book a full session at my usual fee if you'd prefer.

The first 50 minute session is a chance to lay the groundwork, tell me what you want me to know about you from the beginning and for us to explore what things will look like going forward.

Fees

£55 - £70 per regular session. I leave it to you to decide how much you can comfortably and sustainably pay.

When I Work

Thursday and Friday are my main days of availability, from AM to PM.
