I work with people who want to understand themselves more honestly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not to be labelled.
Not to be pushed.
Not to be turned into a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Therapy, at its best, should help you come back to yourself with more awareness, more choice, and a clearer sense of what is yours to carry and what may never have belonged to you in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My work is centred around the Cognisant therapeutic principle. This means the person in therapy remains the person in charge. Therapy should not make you smaller, more dependent, or less able to trust your own judgement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first session is free. After that, you decide whether you want to continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No pressure.
No obligation.
Just a chance to see whether the work feels right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I work with people dealing with emotional and personal difficulties such as anxiety, self-doubt, shame, anger, grief, relationship patterns, emotional avoidance, loss of confidence, and feeling disconnected from themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I do not work with psychotic mental health problems or situations where someone needs urgent crisis support, psychiatric care, or a higher level of clinical support than online therapy can safely offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is not rejection. It is clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good therapy starts with honesty about what is suitable, and what is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first session is free because I believe people should have space to decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You should not have to pay first and then work out afterwards whether you felt safe, heard, or respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the first session, we can talk about what brings you here, what you may want from therapy, and whether the way I work feels like a good fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If it does, we can continue.
If it does not, that is okay too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I do not see therapy as something done to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I see it as a serious, human conversation where we pay close attention to what is happening inside you, between us, and in the wider pattern of your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes that means compassion.
Sometimes it means challenge.
Often, it means both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The aim is not to become perfect. The aim is to become more aware, more honest, and more able to live from your own centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
[About the work]
[The Cognisant therapeutic principle]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I keep client information to a minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You do not have to use your full legal name if you do not want to. I do not routinely ask for GP details unless there is a specific safety reason. I do not keep detailed therapy notes as standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Therapy should be private, respectful, and proportionate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You do not need to explain everything in the first message. A few simple lines are enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
