Why counselling?

There are times in life when it can be helpful to talk in a safe and confidential space to an experienced counsellor. Everyone has a different reason for starting counselling and while this can greatly vary, counselling is often sought to understand difficulties people are experiencing in their lives, to start to improve a person’s wellbeing, or to change self-limiting thoughts.

Often our problems do not fit neatly into a category and so I work primarily with my clients’ experience of the world as the focus of counselling. I provide sessions for individuals, usually on a weekly basis in my private practice in Taunton. If this is not convenient I can offer telephone counselling.

I am a fully accredited counsellor and have experience working with the following issues:

• Addiction
• Anger
• Anxiety
• Bereavement and grief
• Compulsive behaviour
• Depression
• Eating disorders
• Phobias
• Postnatal and perinatal depression
• Relationship problems
• Self-harm
• Sexual abuse
• Sexual violence
• Stress
• Suicide
• Trauma

Introductory sessions are free so that clients can decide whether they feel my counselling approach can work for them. My fee for further sessions are:

• Face to face: £40 per hour
• Online: £25 per hour
• Telephone: £20 per hour
• Email/text: £5 per 15 mins
