I see it differently. While we may all face the <b data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"104\">same storm<\/b>, our boats are unique. Some are sturdy vessels, some are small, and some may currently feel shipwrecked.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\">Wherever you find yourself in the weather of life, I provide a compassionate, safe space and a skilled intuition to help you find your bearings.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"10\">Why Counselling?<\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"11\">Rarely do we allow ourselves the time to truly focus on our own needs. Instead, we often:<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"12\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Suppress<\/b> difficult emotions until they spill over into our work and relationships.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"12,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Ignore<\/b> the pain, preventing us from living authentically in the present.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"12,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Silence<\/b> our inner voice to keep others comfortable.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"13\">But every emotion you carry is important. You deserve to be heard. When we accept ourselves even the parts we aren&#8217;t proud of we regain the power to make choices. We become the <b data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"177\">captain of our own vessel<\/b>, capable of steering away from the jagged rocks and into clearer waters.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"14\">How We Work Together<\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"15\">Counselling is a potent force for change. I have witnessed how self-awareness nurtures growth, but I also know this: <b data-path-to-node=\"15\" data-index-in-node=\"117\">You alone have the capacity to plot your course.<\/b> In our sessions, I don&#8217;t take the wheel; I take my place alongside you. My role is to:<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"16\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"16,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"16,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Support and facilitate<\/b> your journey as you face routes you may not have felt brave enough to travel alone.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"16,1,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"16,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Challenge<\/b> your thoughts and beliefs creatively to open new perspectives.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"16,2,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"16,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Strengthen<\/b> the resources you already possess, building a resilience that lasts long after our work together is done.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"17\">Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, bereavement, or simply feel &#8220;stuck,&#8221; you don&#8217;t have to weather the storm alone.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;

This may involve a traditional approach of talking and exploring, or I offer a more creative approach too which incorporates play therapy, use of materials, sand tray, and psychodrama. Whichever approach you choose, I will tailor each session to meet your needs.<\/p>\n<p>Online Counselling: This has become increasingly popular, particularly during the pandemic. It can be a great way for people to access counselling without the need to travel. I am confident in my experience, that the online counselling that I facilitate does not compromise any aspect of the face-to-face approach. I tend to use remote video call platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Walk and Talk: This offers an in-person approach for those clients who perhaps find the face-to-face aspect of counselling too invasive; or those who feel a connection with nature. I use the area of St. Mary Hoo, Rochester, which provides a quiet space to walk and talk against a rural and dynamic backdrop. Please note, you will need appropriate footwear for the country lanes that this route utilizes.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Feature&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#ad8b40&#8243; overflow-x=&#8221;hidden&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;1&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;5vw|6%|5vw||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;|0vw|||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|0vw|||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;b327cbe4-b1d5-4b66-ad37-40c8f2f061ba&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Cormorant Garamond|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#E1ECEA&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;60px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>What does it cost?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;1f09816e-184e-4ce5-a4cf-b39c52c423ca&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Inter||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#E1ECEA&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||30px||false|false&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;14px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;55px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Free initial in-person, on-line or telephone consultation.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a350 per session thereafter.<\/p>\n<p>Concessions considered for low income, keyworkers students, and counselling students.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further information<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I charge \u00a350 per 50-minute session (Face-To-Face, Online, or Walk and Talk)<\/li>\n<li>The first session is offered free as an initial consultation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Taking the first step into accessing counselling can feel daunting.
