How I Work

How I work as a Counsellor

I use different approaches tailored to each unique client. I draw from many aspects of my life from my training in Relational Transactional Analysis which itself draws on psycho-dynamic, humanistic and behaviourist sources. I am also an NLP practitioner which gives me additional tools and techniques. My approach is typically described as integrative.
I offer a free initial phone chat and then if you want to try out an introductory session, this is half price.

The work is typically short term and goal focused and I often bring in some psychometrics and/or techniques to these sessions. There are usually actions to complete between sessions. I help you: clarify your goals; assess where you are currently;and then how to start moving towards where you want to be.
I have my own career coaching process but it will be tailored to you. Life Coaching works in much the same way. It is about responding to every unique client. I also have a particular interest in Maternity coaching and supporting new mums. I draw on many techniques from my coaching training including N.L.P. and various psychometric tools and cognitive techniques from my psychological background such as Myers Briggs Type Indicator and the Strength Deployment inventory.

Research has proven that the quality of the relationship with your coach or counsellor is the biggest predictor of success. The next step is to give me a call/email or you can meet me in person for a full initial “introductory” session. This session is about seeing whether you think you want to work with me!
For counselling the sessions are weekly. For coaching, it is more common to meet monthly for a longer session. However, we can meet as frequently as you need. Sometimes people start off with weekly sessions and then move to fortnightly or monthly.

I see counselling clients in W13, Ealing (Northfields), accessible for people from W5, W7, and W4 during the daytime. I also work virtually.
If an individual comes for private coaching I mostly I see clients in my consulting room in Ealing/Northfields.
When I am employed by an organisation for coaching or facilitation, most of my work is in Central London.

For weekly counselling, I work day time hours, Tuesdays -Fridays. I charge £62 per 50 minute session. I don't work regular evenings.
For private coaching the sessions are usually less frequent , (but not always). Monthly sessions tend to be 1.5 hours in length. Weekly or fortnightly sessions tend to be 50 minutes in length.
