Hi, and thank you for taking the time to read my profile.

If you need support, I offer telephone, video and messaging, but please contact me to book your session. I can do daytime and evenings.

I thought I would just tell you a little bit about myself if that's okay?

I live in the UK and have worked as an Integrative Counsellor with both adults and children. This allows me to tailor my work so I can help you achieve your therapy goals.

I do not give advice, but I am here to listen and to help work through any difficulties you are experiencing. I believe that you are the expert in your life and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out someone for support, so thank you for reaching out to contact me - I know how difficult those first steps are.

Thank you for reading and I look forward to hearing from you soon. And of course, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
