What I Offer
I am experienced in working with a wide range of issues and experiences including: depression, anxiety, anger, low self-worth, stress, the impact of trauma, dealing with shame, relationship struggles and abuse, identity exploration, neurodiversity, bereavement and loss (of all kinds).
I support adults and young people over the age of 16 on a one to one basis in person from two different locations in Bristol, or online - whatever is best for you.
For new clients I offer a free introductory session either by phone or online (lasting up to 30 minutes), in which you can see if you are comfortable with me and how I work.
Once we have talked, if you feel you want to go ahead, we can set up a regular (usually weekly) slot. Sessions cost £50 payable by bank transfer (£60 for evening sessions).
You are under no obligation to attend a minimum number of appointments. We can set a time frame for your counselling or keep things open-ended. Having a confidential space to talk things through can bring significant emotional relief. For less complex issues, just a few sessions may be enough to support you. If you’re experiencing chronic or more severe issues and are seeking long term results, more sessions would usually be recommended. I will regularly review with you and I encourage your autonomy. I will never encourage you to have more therapy than you need and most clients know for themselves when they are ready to end the process.
I offer day-time sessions from Mondays to Fridays and a limited number of evening sessions on Tuesdays.
If you cannot attend a booked session please let me know as soon as possible. Please note that full payment will be required with less than 48 hours notice.
