Affordable counselling & psychotherapy in Cardiff
Counselling and therapy can help when we're struggling with strong feelings like fear, anger or grief, or we're stuck in a situation that seems hopeless, or we realise that we keep doing the same thing and it isn't doing us any good.
What to expect when you get in touch
I realise that it can be difficult to take a step into therapy, so I offer an initial 30 minute online or phone session free of charge, so that we can get a sense of each other, and so that you can ask questions you may have about therapy.
As a Gestalt therapist, I am committed to working with you to examine what feels difficult in your life and supporting you to find greater satisfaction, choice and possibility.
We may explore your present-day life situations and relationships, as well as those in the past, and also your here-and-now experiences in the moment with me.
I am a psychotherapist in advanced training with the Welsh Psychotherapy Institute which has counsellors, therapists and trainees in many parts of south Wales.
I am working towards UKCP registration and bound by a professional code of ethics.
I have undertaken a four-year training in Gestalt psychotherapy at the Edinburgh Gestalt Institute and have practised as a counsellor since 2016. I am in regular supervision, fully insured and DBS and PVG checked.
I draw on mindfulness meditation, and hold a Diploma in Relational Mindfulness from the Karuna Institute in Devon.
I previously worked in the fields of research, education and policy, and lived in Glasgow, Belgium and London.
Practical information
I am based in Cardiff city centre, in dedicated therapy rooms which are comfortable, private and spacious.
I also provide online therapy and have completed an additional 80-hour training in online counselling.
I charge £40 for each 50 minute session.
