What Next?

Assessments

Please get in touch by clicking on one of the links to my email or phone me with your details and I will get back to you as quickly as I can.

We will arrange a time to meet for an assessment, when you can tell me why you have decided to come to counselling and what you hope to achieve from our time together.

An assessment gives us the opportunity to get to know each other a little bit and to decide if we can work together to form a therapeutic relationship. I will also talk through our contract which will include aspects such as the confidentiality agreement, information storage and supervision.

When and where?

I am able to offer a variety of options for us to work together: in person face-to-face, over zoom or via the telephone, whatever suits you. If you would like to work face-to-face my therapy room is on the first floor at Latrobe Cottage, 21 St Cuthbert's St, Bedford MK40 3JB.

 

Individual counselling

I practice open-ended counselling for individuals, meeting weekly at a regular time. Sessions are paid in advance and each session lasts for 50 minutes.

Couples counselling

Sessions can be a little bit more spread out for couples, as we may meet weekly or fortnightly. The work is more short-term, typically 8-10 sessions in total.

Group support

I am currentently working with A L & G Abbott Funeral Directors as their bereavement counsellor, alongside supporting their clients on a 1:1 basis I am also running two bereavement support groups. I facilitate an open group, meaning anyone can drop in with no commitment at The Church of Transfiguration, Kempston AND a closed group, meaning the participant commits to the 6 sessions with their cohort and see the sessions through with each other from start to finish. Please look at the dedicated tab on the menu bar for more details.

Other group meetings will be advertised throughout the year and will follow a theme. For example, we might cover the menopause, uniting women at a similar stage in their lives to share experiences and create a support group.
