Then let’s begin.
Here is some information about how I work. If you have any other questions please message me via the contact form.
Once you have reached out to me and we've had an initial conversation to ensure we are a good match to work together, sessions will take place either online (via Zoom) or face-to-face in my practice room in Newcastle. I also offer walking or nature sessions if preferred. Each session lasts for 55-minutes and is predominantly led by you as the client. As your counsellor/coach, I will hold a space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings and discuss any challenges you might be facing. We'll look at what you want to gain from the therapeutic process and work together to help you get there.
The general rule of thumb for the frequency of counselling sessions is once per week, especially when you're just getting started. For Life coaching the frequency can be less according to urgency in achieving your objectives. Counselling requires a concentrated effort on a consistent basis to realise the full benefits from the counselling relationship - in other words, it takes regular and consistent work to see results. Some clients move to fortnightly sessions after a certain number of sessions, if feeling more resilient.
I work in an open-ended way, which means you can decide when you want to end your counselling/coaching journey. Some clients choose to just have six sessions, whereas others stay in counselling/coaching for years. The choice is yours.
Single 55-minute session on Zoom or mutually agreed offline location including walking or nature based sessions.
On occasion, I can offer lower rates for those in difficult financial situations. Please enquire over the contact form.
