I offer clinical supervision for trainees and newly qualified counsellors.

I offer a free 15 minutes consultation.  This is an opportunity for you to ask me questions and to ensure that us both we can work together.

At our first session,  this will involved gathering information to see the areas to work first and set together your goals in counselling and decide how many sessions will be appropriate. 

Counselling sessions last 50 minutes, at a regular time and day of the week.

I offer a face to face, on-line, telephone counselling and groups support.

I offer on-line therapy mainly via secure platforms: Zoom, Skype, WhatsApp.
