About Counselling
Counselling offers a space to talk things through and make sense of what’s been feeling difficult day to day. People seek counselling for many different reasons – some come with a specific concern, while others come with a more general sense that things are getting on top of them.
Sessions are led by what feels most important for you to focus on. I work alongside you with empathy and without judgment, helping you understand what’s been going on and why.
What is discussed in sessions is strictly confidential, unless there is a risk of harm.
I work with adults who are diagnosed with ADHD, as well as those who identify with ADHD traits and are looking for support. I also work with people who want to better understand a partner, child or loved one with ADHD.
This might include exploring the emotional impact of feeling behind, misunderstood or hard on yourself.
Alongside counselling, my ADHD coaching training means we can also look at practical challenges such as breaking tasks down, managing overwhelm at home and work, and finding ways of working that work for you, without losing sight of the emotional impact.
Please note: I do not offer ADHD assessments or diagnoses, but I can provide counselling and support for adults who are diagnosed or who identify with ADHD traits.
Our Initial Session
The first session is a chance for us to meet (either in person or online) and begin to talk through what’s been feeling difficult for you recently. You don’t need to prepare anything in advance – many people come to their first session unsure of exactly what they want from counselling, and that’s absolutely okay.
It also gives us both the chance to see whether working together feels like a good fit for you.
If you’d like to continue, we can book a regular day and time or agree a more flexible schedule. This can work well if your availability changes due to work or other life commitments.
Frequency of Sessions and Endings.
Sessions last for 50 minutes and are usually weekly or fortnightly. Monthly sessions are also available towards the end of your counselling or if you would prefer a lighter, ongoing level of support.
Counselling can be short or longer term, depending on what feels right for you.
Cost
£60 for a 50-minute in person or online session.
90-minute sessions are also available at £100 if you would prefer more time in a session or would like to focus on practical challenges without feeling rushed. These can be booked as a one-off or on an ongoing basis.
