    • Get in touch & let’s have a chat to see how can we work together for you to feel better!

    Counselling is a process, one step at a time. As a counsellor I will support you in finding clarity and the best solutions for what you need. Having experienced a variety of challenges myself, I don’t judge a person’s choices and situations. I am acutely aware of how difficult it is sometimes to find the best coping strategy, healthy boundaries, self-confidence and the right measure of assertiveness. The counselling process will focus on working through what is foremost for you at the moment, aiming towards improvement, meaning, clarity, healing. We will work together to develop a clear goal for your therapeutic journey, develop an understanding of your needs and challenges, and a practical vision in the strategies to achieve them.

    Yes they are. However in cases of serious risk of harm, safeguarding issues or court orders, I might be forced to breach confidentiality. More details we will discuss in our first session and in our contract.

    Of course. I also offer a 20 minute get-to-know session, telephone or zoom, where we will discuss any questions and concerns, your needs and expectations and how can we make therapy work for you in the best possible way. This session is free of charge.

    I will only use your contact details to respond to your query, or should we agree to work together, to get in touch with you. No data is shared with third parties and any contact details are stored as safely as possible in password protected devices.

    “I’ve never had anyone listen to me in the way Ines did. She was calm and non-judgemental, allowed me to be open and develop myself to become what I really want to be.”
