About me and my therapy practice

I'm an integrative therapist using a person-centred approach with a dash of psychodynamic theory. This means that no matter how many sessions we've had together or what you might have shared previously, I will always start our session by asking how you are doing in the here and now. Nothing is ever 'too much' in our session together and confidentiality is key to how I'll work with you. Our sessions will be run from The Empathy Room, which is in the comfort of my home. The Empathy Room is an accessible spot in Caversham on a main bus route and is wheelchair and pram accessible. As an advocate for new parents, if you're breastfeeding, your infant is welcome to be in our sessions together. If you're dog friendly and would like to consider a dog being in your sessions, this is also something we can discuss after a few sessions.

Practice description

I offer 50-minute sessions which will be at the same time each week, in The Empathy Room, whether that's online or in person. I can be flexible with sessions, and we can arrange different times if and when needed. If you need a home visit, this is something I can offer too, so we can discuss your preferred type of sessions in our first one. I'll never take notes as you talk and keep minimal records to make sure I stay as confidential as possible for you. If you need to cancel or rearrange our session, you can do so up to 24 hours before our session is due; otherwise, you'll be charged for the session.

My first session

Our first session together will be 50 minutes, and I'll ask you what brings you to the Empathy Room. If it's nothing in particular, I'll ask you what your expectations of therapy together might be. We'll run through a short contract together that outlines how we'll communicate, our cancellation policy, the rates and when payments are expected. I'll also ask you for some personal information, such as an emergency contact, your current residence and GP details. This is just for safeguarding you, if I ever felt it was necessary.
