How I work

It is my belief and experience that lasting changes are founded on the relationship in the room between the client and therapist. I focus primarily on understanding your needs and if I am someone you can relate to and communicate with.

I invite each prospective client to meet for a one-off fifty minute initial consultation session.

The initial consultation session forms a crucial part of the process of my practice. It gives you the chance to meet with me without commitment and for me to share with you some of my thinking and give you a sense of what to expect in our sessions.

At the end of the meeting I ask you to take the time you need to consider whether or not you would like to proceed. Once we have agreed a time and day you will be asked to sign a contract accepting my terms and confidentiality.

Children and Young People

Before meeting a young person under the age of 12, I ask to have an initial consultation session with their parent or carer.
