FAQs

What sort of counselling do you offer and how do you work?

I am a person-centred counsellor which means I work with you to understand your experiences from your perspective. I see you as the expert on your life and our therapeutic relationship aims to allow you to explore your feelings in a safe and non-judgemental way. I work with individuals only.

What are your fees?

All therapeutic sessions last for 50 mins. My rate starts from £65 per 50 mins. However, I do have a limited number of concession options available . My cancellation policy is that I require 24 hours notice in advance of our session being cancelled or a cancellation fee will be charged.

What are your qualifications and do you belong to a professional body?

I have a BA (hons) in humanistic counselling from the University of Warwick and I am currently studying for a PG Dip/M.Ed in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy at the University of Cambridge. I am an accredited member of the BACP (MBACP Accred) and I adhere to their Ethical Framework

I am also an accredited Gender, Sexuality, Relationship and Diversity (GSRD) Pink Therapy Counsellor and have undergone specific gender awareness training as well which all means that although I may share similar lived experiences, I understand the importance of undergoing relevant training when working with clients who may want to explore these areas in therapy with me. My therapeutic and ethical values are at the heart of my practice.

What data and personal details do you hold on me if I become a client?

I am registered with the ICO and adhere to their current Data Protection and GDPR requirements when storing your confidential personal details.

I want to enquire about booking an appointment, what are the next steps?

Do get in touch (my contact details are in the Contact Me section of this website). We can then arrange an initial session so that we can talk about your aims and why you are looking to start counselling. We can talk about the agreement I would have with you and you with me as well. This will give you the opportunity to decide whether working alongside me feels right for you. This is a free 20 minute offer to all perspective clients and it will be conducted online.

I look forward to hearing from you.
