About Therapy Together

I offer weekly 50 minute sessions in person, in Islington near Kings Cross, London or online I currently have availability and am taking on new clients.

My Approach
I am a person-centred therapist, which to most people will not mean much so I will describe what it means to me. At the centre of this approach, is the innate ability within everyone to know what is best for themselves however, this has often been squashed/thwarted by the environment around us. I aim to create a space where you can freely explore what's going on for you away from you day to day environment. I do this by being alongside you, non-judgementally and deeply curious about your experiencing. I believe given the time and space there is no one I cannot empathise with and understand.

With this as the foundation we can go onto explore, learn, integrate, examine, whichever is appropriate for you, your current experiencing. I see myself as an active participant and facilitator for your process. A major part of Person-Centred therapy is that it is client led, meaning that we will go at your pace. You may ask me for a gentle push but unless you ask, I will never push to go to places and share things you aren’t ready to share. Another important aspects of therapy are building a genuine human relationship. Many of our struggles are relational and it can be incredibly powerful to experience a relationship in a different way, outside of your personal and professional ones.

Ultimately, I hope that you feel heard and understood through therapy with me, so together we can explore whatever it is that brings you to seek therapy.

Who I work with
In short, I work with anyone over the age of eighteen. In the past I have volunteered for Spectra a free counselling service for trans and non-binary people and City and East London Bereavement. I have had a huge variety of different clients who have brought an even wider variety of struggles and topics.
Here are some of the topics and difficulties; anxiety, bereavement, diagnosis, relationships difficulties, non-monogamy, exploring new relationship styles, neurodivergence, privilege and oppression, sexual assault, gender identity questions, exploring social and medical transition, ex-boarders, addiction (be it their own or family members), sexuality, kink, ex-boarders, racial identity, and family relationships. This is not an exhaustive list, it is just to give you an idea of my previous work. If you do not see your struggle or identity listed, do still be in contact.
I have a lot of experience working with queer, trans and non-binary clients. For some, it is hugely valuable to have a therapist who holds these shared identities. For many, this will be what has brought you to my website and for others this won’t be the case, I work with people of all gender identities and sexualities (or lack of).

Fees

Introductory Session

30 minutes

Free

50 minutes

£ 75 standard

£ 90 solidarity

Weekly Sessions

After a free introductory session all sessions will be charged at the same price.

The solidarity rate is for those who can afford to pay more to support the low cost work.

Unfortunately I currently have no availability for low cost sessions. An alternative to low cost work if you can not afford ongoing/long-term therapy sessions at my standard rate is working short term. Consider how much you can afford to spend on therapy and we can work out how many sessions. I have lots of experience working on short term basis in charity settings and have found it to be effective.

Next step

Send me a message letting me know you are looking for therapy. Feel free to include a little but about yourself and/or what you are looking to explore in therapy.

Then we can arrange a free 30 minute introductory session (either in person or online). This is a chance for us to get a feel for what it might feel like to work together. We can talk about what brings you to therapy, your expectations, any previous experiences of therapy and anything else you want to share with me. There will be space for you to can ask me questions and I can explain a little more about my approach if you want to know.
