One to one conversation with a therapist is what most people would think of as counselling, and coming here is popular because it offers a calm, quiet, private and confidential space to share and explore your thoughts in the knowledge that you will not be interrupted. Some clients prefer to come here because it takes them out of their usual environment, away from family, partners. or work, and this can be helpful and allow them to express their feelings more easily. 

In addition to privacy, if you and I are in the same room it’s easy for me to show you information, and to do any practical exercises that we might want to do as part of our work together, as I will have all my materials and client information available.

When you are arriving and leaving you cannot be seen or overheard, and you will never meet one of my other clients because I leave a 30 minute space between appointments to ensure your privacy. Scheduling clients like this also means that I am ready to give you my undivided attention for the whole session and we can talk openly, with no need to worry about who might be arriving.

The office is set in a large garden, and offers a tranquil environment, surrounded by trees and we can spend the session outside if you would prefer.

I firmly believe that everything in life is better with a brew, so there is always tea, or if you prefer coffee, or soft drinks which will keep us going through any difficulties that counselling can bring up.
