Counselling or Psychotherapy, what is the difference?

Counselling is usually short term help, while Psychotherapy is a longer working relationship in which the therapist may use psychological tools to help the client explore the background to problems that are severe or issues that may have their roots in past experiences such as childhood.

Clinical Supervision

I offer clinical supervision for student counsellors & qualified counsellors/psychotherapists via ZOOM or telephone

I have an OCN Accredited Certificate in Counselling Supervision & my supervision approach is integrative. I offer a bespoke approach to meet the specific needs of the counsellor/psychotherapist seeking supervision.

I enjoy engaging with the individual learning process of supervisees, along with the continual & necessary process of enquiry into the various unknowns & dilemmas that accompany counselling work generally.

Having professionally benefitted from supportive and collaborative supervision during my own training & professional career, I aim to offer supervisees the same quality of space for learning & exploration. Therefore I am happy to answer any questions that supervisees might have, prior to committing  to a regular supervision agreement, either over the phone or during an initial assessment meeting.

Counselling, Psychotherapy & Supervision sessions are offered via ZOOM or telephone if preferred.

I offer Group supervision, please contact me directly for further details.

Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Counselling and Advisory service.

I'm now able to offer a Tinnitus Advisory service following completion of training with Tinnitus UK.

Alongside counselling, I can provide specialist support for people living with Tinnitus and Hyperacusis including guidance, information, signposting to appropriate services including evidence based CBT informed strategies to help reduce distress, manage intrusive thoughts and develop practical coping skills in order to live better with this debilitating condition.

If tinnitus or hyperacusis is affecting your daily life, support is available and you don't have to face it alone.

The Tinnitus Advisory Service sessions are delivered remotely via ZOOM

There is no requirement to commit to a set number of appointments: sessions are booked entirely at the client's discretion allowing you to choose the level of support that best meets your individual needs and circumstances.
