An initial session at a mutually convenient time offers an opportunity for you ask questions, to discuss what you would like to get from counselling, how I can support you and to see if you would like to book some counselling sessions.
An initial meeting will be for 30 minutes to an hour.
I provide my bank details prior to the start of counselling, and ask that payment is made by bank transfer before each session.

The counselling rooms I work from have been risk assessed and there is enough space to practice safe social distancing.The government has confirmed that services to support mental health can remain open.
How do I know if counselling is right for me?
If you are uncertain about taking the first step, I am happy to offer a free, informal and confidential chat on the phone.I will listen to what you would like to get from counselling and if I feel I am unable to help you I can refer to you another counsellor or service that might be better suited to meet your needs.
