Good counselling provides a place of safety and calm outside the usual day to day pace of life; somewhere to look at your life from a different perspective. I tailor my sessions to meet your uniqueness and support you to discover new choices, focus on change and find clarity. The aim is to help you develop insight into your own problems and discover your own resources to draw on. The process of counselling can help you to feel more in control of your life choices and increase your sense of empowerment.

I offer a free initial 30min. consultation of your situation and how we can best work together. This gives us the chance discuss and agree important issues such as a commitment to privacy and confidentiality.

Sessions last for an hour, giving you the time and space to explore various aspects of your life and feelings, talking about them freely and openly in a way that is rarely possible with friends or family. Bottled up feelings such as anger, anxiety, grief and embarrassment could become very intense and counselling offers an opportunity to explore them safely, understand them better, and resolve or transform them in a positive way. I don’t impose limits on the number of sessions you may have, as most clients know themselves when they are ready to end. Many clients who have completed counselling with me come back, either for an occasional “top up” session, or to deal with new issues or life events which may arise.

Counselling sessions can be booked to take place either at my practice in East Tilbury or online via Skype or Zoom depending on your preference.
