Therapy
Depression & Anxiety
Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at any point in our lives. Counselling can offer you a place where you can be understood and heard, safe in the knowledge that your thoughts and feelings will be treated with dignity and respect.
Trauma
Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. Counselling can provide you with the support to explore and process these events
Improving wellbeing
It is a commonly thought that if you are having counselling you must be experiencing a crisis,and although this is sometimes the case, people often embark upon this pathway because they want to make changes in their life or understand themselves better.
FAQ
Common Questions and Answers
How much does each session cost?
The initial appointment is £30.00. If you decide to start ongoing counselling, each session is £40.00, weekends £45.00. A limited number of sessions may be available at a concessional rate for those who feel that they may benefit from counselling, but for whom such fee levels would be genuinely beyond their means.
How long is each session?
Each session is for 50 minutes. It is important you arrive on time and attend each session to ensure you gain the most from counselling and that you make steady progress towards your goals.
How long will it take?
I offer open-ended counselling so there are no restrictions on the amount of sessions you have. Counselling can continue for as long as you feel you need to, you decide, but the time counselling takes depends on the difficulties you are experiencing and the therapeutic goals that you want to achieve. Short-term/problem focused counselling is available. The length of which can be discussed at your initial appointment.
Are my sessions Confidential?
Everything discussed with your counsellor is strictly confidential. There are some exceptions required by law, such as harm to yourself or others. These will be discussed at your initial appointment to make sure you are aware of these and are happy to continue.
