ABOUT ME

A Professional Here To Walk Alongside You On This Journey

I am a fully qualified and insured counsellor and a member of the BACP (British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists). 

BA (HONS) in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. 

During my five years of working in the mental health profession I have worked with individuals and partnerships that have struggled with a multitude of mental health issues and conditions. These can include  life transitions, relationship fractures, existential angst, bereavement and more. I have an integrative and relational approach to my work. I enjoy the diversity of working with many topics and individual's that enter the therapeutic space. 

I currently hold face to face, online and phone counselling from Sapphire Practice rooms, in Exeter City Centre.

YOUR JOURNEY

It's completely natural to feel a little bit hesitant or nervous when looking for someone to talk to. It's a big step. 

If you're reading this, you've already made that step into looking into your options, that's something in itself.


If you are looking for your first experience of counselling, or perhaps you have had sessions with another therapist and are looking for something different, feel free to get in touch and we can have a relaxed conversation about what it is you are hoping to gain from any future sessions.

 When, or if, you feel that you are ready to contact someone, know that I hold a safe space, a listening ear and the chance for you to talk through and gain a deeper understanding into what makes you, you. Most importantly, therapy is your time.

"Only by making friends with the shadow do we gain the friendship of the self"

SERVICES I OFFER

I currently offer face to face, online and phone sessions for individuals and couples aged 16 and upwards.

 Introductory sessions are £20

50 minute Individual sessions are £55.00.

60 minute Couples sessions are £80.00.

I hold open-ended sessions. This means that there will not be a set amount of sessions allocated. You can decide however many sessions will be best suited, for your needs. 

Please note, Sapphire Practice Rooms does not have wheel chair access and there are many stairs to reach our floor. If you are unable to manage stairs, or need wheelchair access, please get in touch.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Individual sessions offer the opportunity for those in need, to offload their day-to-day worries and delve deeper into their history of what makes them the person they are today.
Whether it be to get all of your "ducks in a row" and find a place of contentment, or to gain understanding into how your past may affect your present mindset.

ONLINE AND TELEPHONE COUNSELLING

Online and telephone Counselling offers those that cannot reach a therapist in person, the opportunity to engage in the therapeutic process from a distance.

Online and phone therapy can be more cost effective than in person therapy.

RELATIONSHIP THERAPY

My approach in Relationship therapy offers those in Monogamous, Non-monogamous and platonic relationships a space to unpack any difficulties they might be sitting with. Allowing partners an equal space to share and explore together. Whilst developing a deeper curiosity, acceptance and compassion for one another. 

Relationship therapy can be a space used to repair fractures, build healthy communication habits, understand our partners more deeply, and/or bring a relationship to a close.

My responsibility is to hold a safe space for all partners to work through the fractures that can build up during a meaningful partnership and work towards a resolution.

LOW COST THERAPY

I reserve a limited amount of low cost counselling sessions for those on a low income.

Please contact me for more details on how this might apply for you.
