I work by listening and working to understand you, and what has brought you  is it a concern within yourself, or the impact of events in your life or both .

The first session is an  opportunity to see if you are comfortable  with me, do you feel heard listened to and understood, a space for you to consider what are you seeking, what has brought you to therapy, what is your goal, what would you like to achieve

 The most important aspect of a trial session is for you to experience myself as therapist,  was that useful/helpful to you ? did you feel heard and understood, then for us to consider what you might like to achieve by entering therapy . I'm able to provide a wide range of modalities ranging from  Psychodynamic, this encourages you to develop greater understanding and kindness to your self to Cognitive Behaviour Therapy which is more solution focused and can be directive. 

I am very happy to answer any questions you might have.  This session is  a free 30 minute, and can be by phone in person or  WhatsApp . If you would like to enter therapy counselling with me, then I would ask you to complete a short assessment  form and provide me with essential details.  These details are held securely and I adhere to GDPR guidelines.  Any information you give to me is held in the strictest confidence.  I do offer a reduced rate up to 50%,  negotiable according to your financial situation and I also offer fortnightly sessions.  

Most importantly 

 I will explain to you the consent form and boundaries of confidentiality  and  we can discuss what has bought you to consider counselling and what you want to achieve / resolve  so that we can together outline a plan that you feel fits you be it short or longer term, weekly or less frequent
