Face-to-Face
Counselling
I offer face-to-face integrative counselling from my private therapy space in Wigan, providing dedicated time away from the demands of everyday life to focus on what is happening for you.
For many people, coming to therapy in person creates a different kind of space, a chance to step away from distractions and have time set aside to reflect, explore and make sense of what they are experiencing. My aim is for you to feel comfortable enough to be yourself, while knowing that our sessions are focused on understanding what matters to you and what you want to change.
My therapy room has been designed with comfort in mind. There are blankets, cushions and fidget toys available if these help you feel more settled during sessions. These are small things, but I believe the environment we work in matters, and that being comfortable can make it easier to engage with the therapeutic process.
As an integrative counsellor, I work from a person-centred foundation, meaning the relationship we build and your individual experiences are at the heart of our work. I draw on different therapeutic approaches, including CBT, Reality Therapy and psychodynamic ideas, when they are helpful in exploring patterns, understanding experiences and considering different ways forward.
Therapy is not about following a set formula or finding a quick solution. Together, we will explore what is happening, where patterns may have come from, and what changes feel possible for you.
Face-to-face sessions last 50 minutes and are charged at £50 per session. I also offer a £5 per session discount when you book and pay for a block of six sessions in advance.
If you are considering counselling and would like to get a sense of whether I am the right counsellor for you, I offer a free 20-minute consultation by telephone or Google Meet. This gives us the opportunity to discuss what has brought you to therapy, answer any questions, and decide whether working together feels like the right fit.
