HOW LONG ARE SESSIONS?
The sessions last for one hour, mutually agreed to between the client and myself. Sessions are usually held on a weekly basis excluding pre-arranged holidays and sickness.

HOW LONG WILL I BE IN COUNSELLING?
This is dependant on the presenting circumstance. Initially 6-12 sessions are recommended and then a review. With complex issues, I recommend a more open-ended time frame with regular reviews.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS?
An accredited certificate and diploma in Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counselling and have an ongoing commitment to my learning and understanding of issues through regular CPD's. Registered with BACP.

WILL OUR SESSIONS BE CONFIDENTIAL?
During our time together, everything we discuss is confidential. The only other person I discuss your case with is my supervisor and this too is confidential and anonymous. It is important that you feel safe to talk about your issues in a contained and supportive space. 

HOW DO I KNOW IF YOU CAN HELP ME?
Until we have a conversation I don't know that either. I recommend people contact me for an initial telephone conversation to give a brief description of what is troubling them. That way, you are able to decide if I suit you and if I'm unable to help you I will aim to sign post you to the relevant organisation.
