Once you have made the decission to start counselling/ psychotherapy you ideally need to find a counsellor or psychotherapist that you feel safe and comfortable with. Research shows that the most significant factor in predicting the outcome of therapy is the relationship between therapist and client.
I offer a free first session to give you the opportunity to ‘try out’ working with me, and to ask any questions you may have. I am happy to have a brief discussion with you and consider your reasons for seeking counselling and psychotherapy prior to our first meeting.

Face to face counselling and psychotherapy sessions take place in a private room at my home in Reading RG2 or in a therapy centre located in Reading RG1. I also have a limited number of spaces for clients in Little Venice, Paddington, London W2.
I offer phone and online counselling/ psychotherapy for clients who don’t wish to work face-to-face.
This central location means that you can find a time to suit you, on your way to work, in your lunch hour, in the evenings or any time in between.
Please note that once you have booked a session I require 48 hours notice of cancellation or you will be charged for the session.
Counselling and Psychotherapy sessions ordinarily last for 50 minutes and generally take place once a week. In some cases different arrangements can be made.
