Beginning Counselling
I firstly offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation, this is a chance for you to tell me why you're interested in counselling along with what your hopes are. I can answer any questions you may have and check if i'm the right counsellor to meet your needs.
Should you decide to go ahead, we will book an initial appointment, where I will spend some time finding out more about you, your current situation and the impact it's having on your life.
Counselling is not a ‘quick fix’, it not just about working with the symptoms but it’s going to the root of the problem. Oftentimes, this can make us feel worse before we start feeling better again but this is also the place where real change can occur.
Where I work
I work face to face from my therapy room in Dunbar. The room provides a comfortable and peaceful space, overlooking my garden then onto fields beyond. I also work from Babyama Wellness Hub in Berwick-upon-Tweed on a Friday.
If it’s more convienent to save travel, I’m able to work online via zoom.
