My way of working

I am a Trauma Informed integrative counsellor and use a relational framework as the basis of my integration. In plain speech this means I pay attention to, and focus on, the nature of connections both inside and outside of the therapy room.

When working with Trauma I use a three-phase trauma model. Trauma work can be more directive, and I will take an active role pacing sessions:

Phase one focuses on stabilisation; building resources to support you both within sessions and outside
Phase two is more exploratory; focused on processing and integrating experiences
Phase three is future-focused; supporting you in finding the way forward that feels most authentic to you.

I offer three different types of sessions. There are advantages to each and what works best is highly individual. Where you are unsure, we can work together to determine the right choice for you.

Choosing the best session type for you

In person sessions

Locations: Swindon & Marlborough

Here we meet face-to-face in a dedicated counselling space. The therapy room can act as a container for the work. Session fee: £65 for a 50 minute session

Online / Telephone sessions

Here you have full control of your environment. I am invited into your space through your device. You can continue to have sessions across different locations (whilst still in the UK). Session fee: £65 for a 50 minute session

Walking Sessions

Locations: Hungerford & Marlborough

Sessions are held outdoors, are more active and we interact mostly side-to-side. Session fee: £70 for a 60 minute session
