Counselling for Individual Adults

Are you feeling anxious about your relationships? Perhaps you find yourself trying to please others. Or maybe it's difficult for you to tell others how you're feeling because you worry about what they will think. It could be that you find it hard to ask for what you need, or to say no. It can be really difficult to balance our own wants and needs with what others want of us, leading us to feel lost and without a clear idea of what's important. It’s difficult to feel close to other people when you're struggling with these issues, and this can lead to feelings of disconnection, resentment and low self-esteem.

I can help you explore what’s troubling you by offering you a calm, confidential and non-judgemental space to talk about your current situation, and the experiences and events that have brought you to this point. This can help you to understand yourself better, and feel more peace and enjoyment in your relationships and everyday life.

Couples Counselling

Couples come for counselling for many different reasons. Perhaps you are arguing a lot, finding it hard to communicate with each other, or you're feeling that you are growing apart. Relationship issues can develop for many reasons including infidelity, parenting, issues with your wider family network, and sexual problems.

I can provide a non-judgemental, non-blaming space in which you can explore these issues and begin to understand each other better so that you can work together to make changes.

Couples counselling can also be very helpful for couples thinking of separating as we can work together to reduce conflict so that separating is more amicable.

I work with individual adults (age 18+) on a weekly basis - sessions will be on the same day and time each week.  I work face to face at my practice in Worcester Park, and also online.

I’m an integrative counsellor, which means I can draw on a number of therapeutic approaches including person centred and psychodynamic. I have experience of working with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, self-criticism, low self-worth, relationship difficulties, loss, and life changes.

I understand how daunting it can feel to start therapy, and how important it is to find the right therapist. I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation so that you can get a sense of whether I might be the right therapist for you. Please get in touch by phone, text or email and I will respond to you within 48 hours. 

Fees - Individuals £65, couples £85

Counselling for Adult Individuals

In the initial consultation session I'll ask you to tell me about yourself and the issues that have brought you to counselling, and you can ask any questions you might have about working with me. At the end of the session if you decide that you would like to continue into counselling with me then we can agree a regular weekly time for your sessions.

Couples Counselling

The initial session is a chance to talk about the issues that have brought you to couples counselling. I will ask you some questions to help me assess how I might be able to help you. I'll also explain a bit more about how I work, and you can ask any questions you might have about the couples counselling process.

Following this, I will arrange to see each of you individually, and then we'll then meet again together to agree on the focus of the work.
