The best first step is a free 25-minute initial conversation. It's a chance to ask questions, tell me a little about what's brought you here, and see whether working together feels right — with no obligation to book anything afterwards.

If you're enquiring about clinical supervision, the free 25-minute initial conversation is a chance to talk about your supervision needs and whether we'd be a good fit.

To book a call, or if you have any other questions, you can phone, text or email me, or fill out the form. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Frequently asked questions

Counselling

What types of sessions do you offer?

I offer online and telephone counselling sessions for adults and young people aged 16 and over across the UK.

How long are sessions?

Each counselling session lasts 50 minutes.

Do you offer a free 25-minute initial conversation?

Yes. A free 25-minute initial conversation (optional) is available to discuss your needs and answer any questions before committing to counselling.

How much does counselling cost?

The 25-minute initial conversation is free. The initial assessment is £40, and each 50-minute counselling session is £50. See my Services & Fees page for full details.

How often are sessions?

Sessions are usually arranged at a regular agreed time each week, where possible. We can talk about what works for you during the 25-minute initial conversation.

Is an initial assessment required?

Yes. An initial assessment is required before starting any ongoing counselling sessions.

How many sessions will I need?

Everyone's needs are different, but I usually suggest starting with six sessions. This allows time to explore what has brought you to counselling and begin working towards your goals. After six sessions, we can review your progress together and decide whether continuing would feel helpful for you.

Are sessions confidential?

Yes. All sessions are confidential in line with professional and ethical standards.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule an appointment?

Sessions/appointments can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours' notice. Please see my Services & Fees page for full details.

Clinical supervision

Who do you offer clinical supervision to?

I offer Integrative counselling supervision to qualified, newly qualified and trainee counsellors. If you are a counselling student, please check with your training provider whether supervision with a supervisor currently completing their Level 6 supervision qualification can count towards your course requirements. Supervision is a separate service from counselling — see Clinical Supervision for details.

How are supervision sessions delivered and what are the fees?

Supervision is offered one-to-one, online and by telephone UK-wide, with flexible monthly scheduling. Sessions are 90 minutes and cost £50, with limited reduced-rate places at £40 for counselling students. A free 25-minute initial conversation is available to discuss your supervision needs and whether we would be a good fit.

Is supervision confidential?

Yes. Supervision is a confidential space. When discussing client work, I ask that you anonymise clients and avoid sharing identifying details. As with counselling, there are some limits to confidentiality. These include serious concerns about risk or safeguarding, or significant ethical or professional concerns, which we would aim to discuss together first wherever possible. As I am currently completing my Level 6 supervision training, I take my supervision practice to my own supervisor and training group, where any discussion is anonymised. For counselling students, any reports your training provider requires will be agreed with you in advance. Full details are set out in our supervision agreement.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule a supervision session?

Supervision sessions can be cancelled or rescheduled with at least 24 hours' notice. Cancellations made within 24 hours, or missed sessions, will be charged the full session fee. I understand that emergencies can happen and will consider these on a case-by-case basis.
