In Person
In-person counselling offers a warm and personal connection, helping you feel truly understood through face-to-face interaction. Being in a dedicated, safe space away from daily distractions allows you to focus entirely on your healing. With the added benefit of techniques best suited for in-person sessions, it provides a nurturing environment for your journey towards well-being.
Online
Online counselling offers a gentle and accessible way to receive support from the comfort of your own home, ideal for those who may feel anxious about in-person sessions or simply have a busy schedule. It provides a private and secure space to explore your feelings at your own pace. You’ll receive the same compassionate care and guidance through video sessions, making it a reassuring and flexible option for your healing journey.
Combination
For those who need flexibility, a combination of in-person and online therapy. This allows you to switch between face-to-face sessions in the comfort of your home as needed, providing support that fits into your life, no matter how unpredictable it may be. It's a versatile approach that ensures you always have access to the care you need, whether you prefer the personal touch of in-person or the convenience of online sessions.
There are lots of different types of therapy and counselling. It can be off-putting and confusing when you get into all the details, so don’t feel like you need to know exactly what you need before contacting me. Just drop me a note and let’s talk - it’s usually the easiest way to work out what’s best for you as everyone needs something a little bit different. But if you are curious to understand more or if you do happen to know what it is you’re looking for below is a small list of some of the different therapy models I use. If you’ve got this far the chances are I can help.
To get started I offer a free 15 minute telephone/online consultation.
