More About my Sessions
Counselling in Southport
I provide one to one counselling for individuals from my accessible home close to Hesketh Park in Southport. Sessions are 50 – 60 minutes long. There is no fixed limit to the number of sessions, that is for you to decide, there is no ‘normal’ but for the majority of my clients, we have worked together over 6 to 10 sessions, generally a week apart. I will regularly check in with you – is it helpful? Can I clarify anything? Of course, you are free to end therapy at any time. My fees are £45 per session with concessions to counselling students. Currently, my availability is limited to weekday evenings.
First Session
In the first session we have the opportunity to discuss why you are looking for counselling and what you want to get from the sessions, don’t worry if that’s not easy to put into words!
It gives you a chance to meet me to get a feel for how we might work together. You might decide it is not for you, and that is fine. I might be able to suggest some other counsellors or organisations.
You may have some questions for me, it might help to write those down before we meet.
If you wish to continue there will be a written agreement for you to keep as a point of reference. It is very important to me that you feel both comfortable and informed.
Positive Change
“I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and change, I am not an ‘expert’ to tell you what to do, I offer you a space and the conditions for you to see things differently, untangle situations and experience positive change”
