Counselling and Psychotherapy​

​​

Do you offer counselling in Weybridge and surrounding areas?
Yes. I offer face-to-face counselling and psychotherapy in Weybridge and work with clients from nearby areas including Walton-on-Thames, Addlestone, Chertsey, Esher, Cobham, Hersham, and the wider Surrey area. I also offer online therapy across the UK, allowing you to access counselling from wherever you feel most comfortable.

​

Do you offer online therapy?
Yes. I provide online counselling and psychotherapy throughout the UK via secure video platforms. Online therapy can be just as effective as face-to-face work and offers flexibility, accessibility, and continuity of support.

​

How much do counselling sessions cost?
Session fees start from £75 per 50-minute session. Fees, availability, and session frequency can be discussed during initial contact or your free introductory call.

​

Do you offer a free introductory call?
Yes. I offer a free 15-minute introductory call, giving you the opportunity to ask questions, share what’s bringing you to therapy, and get a sense of whether working together feels right. There is no obligation to continue after the call.

​

How long does a counselling or psychotherapy session last?
Each session lasts 50 minutes. Sessions are usually weekly, although this can be adapted depending on your needs and circumstances.

​

What can I expect from a therapy session?
Therapy sessions offer a confidential, calm, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences safely. Some sessions may feel reflective and exploratory, while others may focus more on understanding patterns, emotional regulation, or coping strategies. We work at your pace, and there is no pressure to talk about anything before you feel ready.

​

What happens in the first session?
The first session is about beginning the therapeutic relationship. We’ll talk about what has brought you to therapy, any relevant background, and what you hope to gain from the process. I will also explain how I work, confidentiality, and practical arrangements. There is no expectation to go into detail straight away — the focus is on helping you feel safe, supported, and understood.

​

Is therapy right for me?
You don’t need to be in crisis or have a diagnosis to start therapy. Therapy may be right for you if you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally drained, or noticing repeated patterns in your thoughts, relationships, or work life. Many people also come to therapy during periods of transition or when they want a deeper understanding of themselves. If you’re unsure, the free 15-minute introductory call can help you explore whether therapy feels like the right next step.

​

What is the difference between counselling and psychotherapy?
Counselling and psychotherapy often overlap, but they can differ slightly in focus and depth. Counselling is often more focused on current difficulties and support through specific challenges such as stress, anxiety, or life changes. Psychotherapy tends to involve deeper exploration of long-standing patterns, past experiences, and how these affect your inner world and relationships. As an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, I draw from both approaches and tailor the work to your needs rather than separating them into rigid categories.

​

Do you offer EMDR therapy?
Yes. I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) for single-incident trauma, where this approach is clinically appropriate. EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process distressing or traumatic memories that feel “stuck”, reducing their emotional intensity and impact on daily life.

​

I am currently working towards full EMDR accreditation, and I offer EMDR within a carefully paced, trauma-informed framework, ensuring that preparation, safety, and emotional stability are prioritised before reprocessing begins. EMDR may be helpful for experiences such as accidents, medical trauma, sudden losses, or specific distressing events. Suitability is always discussed collaboratively.

​

Who do you work with?
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, identity concerns, and life or career transitions. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin therapy — curiosity, uncertainty, or a sense that something needs attention is enough.

​

How do I get started?
You’re welcome to get in touch via email or the website contact form to arrange your free 15-minute introductory call. From there, we can explore next steps together and decide whether counselling or EMDR therapy feels right for you.
