Seeking therapy is not a sign of weakness—it's an act of courage and self-care.
I work in a person-centred way, which means that you are at the heart of the therapeutic process. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change when offered the right support and environment.
My role is to provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. Working collaboratively, I will listen with empathy, respect your unique perspective, and support you in gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and the challenges you may be facing.
Rather than telling you what to do, I will walk alongside you, helping you discover your own strengths, build self-awareness, and find ways forward that feel right for you. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, low mood, loss, relationship difficulties, or life transitions, therapy can offer the opportunity for reflection, understanding, and meaningful change.
Together, we can create a therapeutic relationship that supports you in becoming the person you want to be.
The Process
-

No expectation to share
Therapy is not sharing your deepest darkest secrets!
Together, we pace the sessions, we work at what feels comfortable for you
-

Trust building
You’re part of the process. We keep communication open and decisions shared—no black boxes or surprises.
-

Adapt as Needed
Everyone is different. We stay flexible and responsive to make sure the process fits your flow—not the other way around.
-

Support with a long term lens
Rather than telling you what to do, I will walk alongside you, helping you discover your own strengths, build self-awareness, and find ways forward that feel right for you. Building skills for the future, after therapy.
What to Expect
A free 30‑minute introductory call or meeting
Weekly 50‑minute sessions
Short‑term or longer‑term counselling available
A confidential, supportive and respectful environment
Starting counselling can feel daunting — I’ll do my best to help you feel at ease from the very first contact.
If You’re Feeling Unsure
It’s completely normal to feel nervous or unsure about starting counselling. Many people worry about:
Not knowing what to say
Feeling emotional
Being judged
My aim is to create a warm, safe and supportive environment where you can simply be yourself.
If you’d like to take the next step or even ask any questions, you’re very welcome to get in touch.
Your first counselling session is a space to begin gently exploring what’s going on for you.
We might talk about:
What has prompted you to seek counselling
Your current challenges or concerns
Any relevant background that feels important to share
There’s no right or wrong way to use this time. You don’t need to have everything figured out, and you don’t need to know what to say — we can take things at your pace.
Ongoing Sessions
Sessions usually take place weekly and last 50 minutes. Counselling can be short‑term or longer‑term, depending on what feels right for you.
My role is not to tell you what to do, but to:
Listen with care and without judgement
Help you understand your thoughts, feelings and patterns
Support you to make sense of your experiences
Help you find your own way forward
Sometimes counselling can feel challenging, particularly when exploring difficult experiences. This is a normal part of the process, and we will always move at a pace that feels manageable for you.
What does this cost?
Each session will last 50 minutes each, usually taking place weekly unless we have discussed an alternative plan. The cost is £55 a session, I also provide a limited number of concession spaces for those on low-income or students. Please contact me for availability.
In person sessions are held in Horsham, West Sussex currently and moving to Guildford/Cranleigh. I also offer online via GoogleMeet.
