Enquiries

After making an enquiry, I will aim to respond to you within 7 days.

Please note: If you contact me through my website and do not receive an answer, please try to email again directly via millwattcounselling@gmail.com

I will then schedule a free 30 minute introductory phone or video call to discuss your aims for counselling and how we might work together.

If you wish to pursue sessions, I work on an open-ended basis, meaning that you can choose to end therapy at any time.

Sessions will be once weekly, or fortnightly if requested, for 60 minutes.

The Therapeutic Process

When the world feels unsafe, or living in our bodies and with others make us anxious, depressed, or alienated, healing needs to begin within the whole self, mind and body. Challenges to our sense of self and feelings of safety, problems in our relationships, lingering pain and discomforts, and trouble with finding meaning or purpose can all be helped with the space to express ourselves freely, and move through difficult feeling states with more ease.

I use a combination of humanistic therapies grounded in person-centred foundations, and where appropriate, include existential therapy, mindfulness, somatic techniques, and cognitive therapies including ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy). I can provide exercises and tools during sessions which you can use independently to support well-being, if this is therapeutically appropriate.

My approach is also supported by a personal understanding of the non-material world. I am happy to join you as a companion on this journey. My experiences with the interconnected web of life inform my therapeutic work.

I believe that a different therapy must be constructed for each client because each has a unique story.
