Next Steps
All potential clients will be offered an initial clinical assessment, I will need some personal information and we will talk about your wellbeing and what has brought you to therapy. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and we can agree together how you want to work, we can also decide together if I am the right therapist for you.

Counselling & Psychotherapy
With nearly a decade of experience, I specialise in supporting adults with ADHD, Autism, and other neurodivergent challenges, as well as individuals navigating LGBTQIA+ issues, binge eating, bereavement, anxiety, and depression.
I provide counselling sessions in person in Pontefract and online, ensuring flexibility and accessibility. I offer short-term and long-term therapy for Adults 18+, Employee Assistance Programmes, Groups, Older adults, and Trainee Counsellors. I do not work with clients under 18 years of age.
As an integrative psychotherapist, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client. Drawing on a range of counselling techniques, I adapt my methods to suit you, rather than relying on a single therapeutic model.
I hold a Post-Graduate Diploma in Counselling & Psychotherapy and I am an accredited member of the BACP. This accreditation reflects my commitment to maintaining high standards of expertise, ethical practice, and continuous professional development.
Additionally, I am a qualified Clinical Supervisor, offering professional supervision to fellow counsellors and other mental health professionals. I am also a part-time lecturer at Leeds Beckett University, teaching counselling trainees on the diploma courses.
Whether you're seeking support for specific challenges or general wellbeing, I’m here to help with compassion, flexibility, and expertise.
Fees:
Initial Assessment / Consultation session: £60 per session.
Adults (18+): £65 per session (£70 per session after 6pm)
Students or counselling trainees: £55 per session
Each session lasts 50 minutes.
How to make payment:
I currently accept payment via bank transfer or debit/credit card.
Services
Clinical Supervision
I have a Diploma in Clinical Supervision from the Leeds Centre for Psychological Development.
I am open to working with counsellors from various modalities as would seek to understand your individual approach to counselling. I also have experience as a Lecturer in Counselling at Leeds Beckett University, having taught many counselling trainees since 2021.
My job as a supervisor is to uphold the counselling profession; I do this by working with the therapist to monitor client safety and wellbeing and creating a facilitative and nurturing environment in which we can explore together the therapeutic relationships between you and your clients, and reflect on the unconscious processes which can emerge between them.
Also in the process of supervision, I would support and encourage the supervisee to become aware of any internal responses that may help enhance their personal and professional development.
Supervision can be offered face-to-face in Pontefract or online.
I offer an initial 30 minute online consultation to see if we may work together. This is charged at £30.
Fees: £60 per 60 minute appointment or £80 per 90 minute appointment.
For trainee counsellors I offer 60 minute appointments fortnightly for £50 per session.
How to make payment:
I currently accept payment via bank transfer or debit/credit card.
Couples Therapy
I will be offering Couples Therapy from late 2025. This will be offered face-to-face in Pontefract, the website will be updated once appointments are available.
