I work Monday to Friday, and my last session starts at 7pm.

All sessions are 50 minutes long.

I work online using Zoom, with clients in the UK and across the world.

Thank you for reading this far! 

My own belief is that almost anyone would benefit from counselling. All of us have challenges in our emotional life, which can probably be improved by seeing them more clearly, and talking them through.

In many ways counselling is all about dispelling the confusion we carry around in our heads, and making our heads and hearts a little tidier.

It's also about rediscovering good reasons to like ourselves, or to break unhelpful habits.

Many emotional and behavioural challenges stem back to our hidden anxieties, and some of these are below the surface and stubborn to unearth.

So whatever you're going through at the moment, or whatever happened in the past (or might happen in the future), I would be delighted to try to work it out with you.

My first session with you (a new client) involves a broad-brush look at the difficulties you are experiencing. The same is true if a couple comes to counselling together.

The session might include a little background information about your family and your relationship history. But this can go at a pace you find comfortable and safe.

I do not ask clients to complete any sort of written assessment.

The first session is charged at 50%.
