Counselling offers a confidential, steady space to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace. You can bring whatever feels important - even if you’re unsure where to begin. Together, we’ll gently make sense of what’s going on for you, what you need, and what might help you move forward.

Sessions last 50 minutes.

Sessions are £70. You can find full details on my Fees & Availability page.
