Talking Therapy

Counselling and psychotherapy can offer a powerful space for healing through conversation, connection and reflection. My approach is integrative, which means I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model. Instead, I see you as the expert in your own life and wellbeing, and I draw from psychotherapeutic, yogic and spiritual approaches to support what feels most useful for you. This blend allows us to work holistically with the mind, body and spirit, creating space for greater awareness, self-understanding and change.

Together, we’ll build a therapeutic relationship shaped around what you need. I believe you already carry deep knowledge and wisdom within you; therapy can help you reconnect with it. I’ll walk alongside you as you explore your inner world, supporting you to meet yourself with more gentleness, honesty and compassion. At your pace, we can make room for both the lighter and more difficult parts of your experience, helping you move towards a fuller and more grounded sense of self.

I’m a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work in line with their ethical framework. I’m also part of a professional network of counsellors and psychotherapists, which supports reflective, accountable and ethical practice.

Availability

I offer in-person sessions in Shaw (OL2 8PH). Online and remote sessions are also available via Microsoft Teams, giving you flexibility to choose the setting that feels most accessible and supportive.

Sessions last 50 minutes and can be arranged as a one-off, weekly or bi-weekly, on either a short- or long-term basis. The fee is £60 per session. I also offer a complimentary 10-minute Microsoft Teams call so we can connect, explore what you’re looking for, and get a sense of whether working together feels right.

I understand that therapy is not always financially accessible. To help with this, I offer a limited number of reduced-fee sessions at £40 for people who are able to meet their basic needs, such as food and housing, while still needing to carefully consider affordability.

What next?

Send me a message to arrange an initial call or ask any questions. I’ll do my best to respond as soon as I can, usually within a day. After we meet, I generally suggest taking a couple of days to reflect on our conversation, speak with other potential therapists if you wish, and decide what feels right for you. I’ll then follow up by email to see whether you’d like to work together. If so, we can book your first session and agree a rhythm for our work.
