    One to One Counselling:

    I am experienced at working with conditions such as gambling, alcohol, drug and sex addiction, sexual and emotional abuse, psychosexual work, depression, anxiety, bereavement, grief and loss, stress, self-harming, improving self-confidence and self-esteem, sexuality, relationship problems either with a partner (whatever sex) or within your family (parents or children). Please enquire if you require something more individual, I would be happy to help.

    Fees

    The initial session will be a Consultation Session for you to explore what counselling is all about and what you would like to get from the experience. The charge for a Consultation is £20.00 single/£25.00 couples. If you then wish to to continue with counselling sessions these will start at £40.00 for individual counselling; £50 for couples. If this is not what you require at this time, you are under no obligation to continue. A sliding scale operates with concessionary fees for students.

    Each counselling session will be a 50-minute hour and will generally be at the same time every week. We will start with 1-6 sessions and then review - your counselling can be as short or as long as you would like it to be. Both short-term and long-term work undertaken.
