What do you love most about your job?
I love meeting new people and working with you to manage challenges that you meet in your life. I enjoy the commitment of working together to help you understand yourself better and to support you to become more skilled in getting the best out of your life.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was struck by how much COVID-19 has been a particularly stressful time for many of us and that now is a time when we are questioning things that we used to take for granted. I believe this is a time where my experience can really add value. Using this I can support you to identify and acknowledge your strengths and work with you in developing the skills and understanding to face difficulties that you meet.
Why should our clients choose you?
With many years of work experience, I believe that I have a lot to offer adults who may be living with different issues or who wish to explore their own psychological processes.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Not initially. I feel that the personal relationship is central to therapy and that it is important to meet face to face to build this. If I know someone and they feel comfortable to work remotely once trust has been build, then we may agree to work remotely at some point.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I ask people to complete a form detailing their symptoms prior to their appointment. I also wear a face mask if they are not fully vaccinated. I sanitise the office before and after each appointment and ensure that there is good ventilation. There is a 15 minute gap between appointments also.
