Step 1: Get in touch using the form below or call 07812 120771. I will acknowledge receipt as soon as possible and offer to arrange an initial telephone call. 

Step 2: I offer a free, 20-minute, telephone conversation for us to evaluate if I can help you and if we should organise an initial assessment. If I don’t think I am the right therapist for you, I will signpost you to other individuals or organisations that may better support your needs.  

Step 3: We arrange a convenient time for our first session, an in-depth assessment which takes approximately 60 – 75 minutes and is a stand-alone fee. I use a Core-10 assessment form to understand how you are presently feeling. The assessment is designed for you to decide whether you would like to work with me and for me to understand what you are presently finding difficult. I will also explain how psychodynamic counselling works and what to expect during our sessions. Feel free to ask any questions or raise any concerns you may have about beginning counselling or how effective therapy can be. We then agree on a time and day to work with each other, which is normally on a weekly basis. We also decide on the mode of counselling (in-person/ online/ telephone/ open-ended/ brief).
