Person-centred counselling support, based in Cheshire A calm, supportive space where you can move forward with renewed confidence

The key difference between coaching and counselling is the entry point for clients. Counselling typically works with individuals in emotional distress or dealing with vulnerability, often focused on healing and resolving deep-rooted issues. In contrast, coaching is for those who are already focused on growth and learning but may feel stuck or unsure of what is holding them back.

Counselling sessions are usually 50-60 minutes long and typically take place weekly. Most clients engage in around 10-12 sessions, although the duration may vary depending on the issues being addressed. We can always reassess the frequency and length of sessions based on your individual needs and goals.

I currently offer counselling services within the UK due to the licensing requirements and the jurisdiction of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), which is a UK-based professional body.

The relationship between a counsellor and their client is a key factor in determining the success of the work we do together. Research consistently shows that the quality of the relationship plays a crucial role in influencing the outcome. That’s why it’s important to assess if we’re a good fit.

I invite you to explore my website and learn more about my approach, values, and qualifications. My core values of curiosity, clarity, courage, playfulness, and authenticity are central to how I work, and they guide every session. I also encourage you to follow me on LinkedIn to get a sense of who I am and how I approach both personal and professional development.

If you feel aligned with my approach and values, we can discuss how best to work together and whether coaching or counselling is the right fit for your needs.

The first step is to book a discovery call, which allows us to discuss your needs, goals, and how we can work together. You can easily schedule a call through my Calendly link, or alternatively, you can reach out via the Contact page if you prefer to get in touch directly.

I offer both online and in-person sessions, depending on your needs. Online sessions provide flexibility, allowing us to work together no matter where you are. For in-person sessions, I am based in Lymm, and I may also offer sessions at your workplace for corporate coaching, depending on location and availability. We can discuss the best option during our initial call.

Confidentiality is a key part of our work together. What you share in sessions will remain private, unless there are legal exceptions, such as preventing harm or complying with laws related to terrorism, money laundering, or human trafficking.

For sponsored sessions, we’ll establish a three-way agreement so that everyone is clear about what can be shared and what remains private. We’ll discuss these details upfront to ensure transparency and trust from the start.

Your privacy and trust are very important, and I’ll always work to ensure you feel safe and comfortable in our sessions.

The results you achieve depend on your commitment and active participation. While I provide guidance and support, the work we do together requires your engagement.

Counselling is all about healing and emotional resilience. While results can be deeply transformative, they often take time. Your willingness to explore, reflect, and work through the challenges you face is key. I will help create a safe space where we can address the emotional blocks holding you back, but the healing process is something you actively participate in.
