Welcome!

Thank you for taking the time to have a look at my website. I hope it gives you an idea of how I work and a sense of whether I’d be a good fit for you.

Starting therapy can feel quite daunting! And it can also feel confusing trying to work out how to choose somebody. It’s also true that different therapy styles might be better for you at different times and stages in your life.

If it’s your first time looking for a therapist, here are some things you to think about:

• Location – is the therapist near you? Is the room suitable for you?
• Online or in person? Do you want to see the therapist in person or would you prefer to have sessions online, eg on Zoom?
• Cost – is it in your budget? You can probably expect to have six sessions, at least. Usuallyu this is weekly, some therapists offer fortnightly, or even monthly.
• Qualifications – is the therapist suitably qualified? Do they belong to a membership body? Do they follow an ethical framework or similar? Do they have supervision?
• Do you want a therapist who will just listen to you, or do you want some challenge and questions? Do you want the therapist to suggest creative interventions or other techniques like breathing techniques to calm and ground?
• Will the therapist suggest books or videos you might find helpful?
• Does the therapist do regular training? Do they keep in touch with current research and information?

This might help guide your search for a therapist – and perhaps gives you some ideas to ask when you get in touch with somebody. Most of my answers to these questions are on this website, but feel free to check in if I’ve missed something that’s important to you to know!

If you think I’d be a good fit as your therapist, please do get in touch to see if we can work together!
