Counselling & Talking Therapy
Counselling and Talking Therapy could help you in a variety of life situations.
Understand your situation
What is Counselling?
Counselling and Talking Therapy is about working together to explore your issues and feelings at your pace, to enable you to gain more clarity and make sense of your situation. I draw upon a wide variety of influences within the field of talking therapies including:
- Person-centred Counselling
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Human Givens Psychotherapy
- Solution Focused Therapy
There is no ‘one size fits all’ approach within talking therapy because we are all unique and this integrated approach means that I work with you as an individual and the issues that you bring to therapy.
Counselling & Talking Therapy Sessions
Talking Therapy and Counselling sessions are often suited to situations where you may be experiencing difficulties in your life such as low self esteem, anxiety, relationship difficulties or bereavement.
Working with and resolving issues can often be achieved in a fairly short course of sessions and some issues may require longer term therapy. Often problems are resolved within short term therapy (12 sessions or less) and sessions are usually weekly, especially in the early stages.
The number of sessions required will depend on your individual situation and needs. A course of six sessions is often recommended in the first instance, followed by a review. We will discuss your situation and decide on the most appropriate therapy options at your first session.

Free Initial Consultation
If you have any questions or are unsure whether therapy is right for you, I offer a 20 minute online free initial consultation via Zoom. This is an opportunity for us to meet, discuss what you’d like to change and how we can work together. I’ll also explain the face to face or online therapy options and we’ll talk about the number of sessions you might need.
