Therapy
What I work with
01Individual sessions
The main part of the work: one hour, one to one, weekly to begin with.
02Anxiety and panic
Thoughts that will not put themselves down, and a body that stays switched on.
03Low mood
Days that flatten out, and the effort of doing ordinary things.
04Loss and grief
For a person, a relationship, a job, or a life you expected to have.
05Stress and burnout
When work has taken more than it gave back.
06* Couples
Where the difficulty is between two people rather than inside one, with both in the room.
07Family sessions
For what has settled between parents, children and the rest of the house.
08Young people
Adolescents, with the boundaries around confidentiality agreed with everyone at the start.
09Confidence and self-worth
The voice that gets there first and says you cannot.
10Life changes
A move, a birth, a diagnosis, a retirement — any hinge that is harder than expected.
11Online sessions
The same hour, by video, for people abroad or a long way out.

- 1
Start with a conversation
A short talk first, to see whether we are a good fit. No commitment.
- 2
What you say stays here
Confidential, with the few legal exceptions explained in the first session.
- 3
Your pace
Weekly to begin with, usually. You decide when to stop, and you can pause.
- 4
In person or online
Whichever gets you through the door, or to the screen, more easily.
Questions people ask
What happens in the first session?
You say what brought you, I ask some questions, and we agree what would be useful. You can decide at the end whether to come back.
How long does it take?
It depends what you bring. Some things take six sessions, some take longer. We review it out loud rather than letting it drift.
Is it confidential?
Yes. The exceptions are the legal ones about serious risk, and I explain them at the start so nothing is a surprise.
Is this the same as seeing a psychiatrist?
No. A psychiatrist is a doctor and can prescribe. If medication is worth discussing, I will say so and help you find the right person.
Do I have to talk about my childhood?
Only if it turns out to be useful. We start with what is happening now.
What if I need to cancel?
Let me know as early as you can, and at least the day before, so the hour can go to somebody else.
What if I do not know what to say?
That is common, and not a problem. Sitting with it is part of the work.
