Initial Consultation

Free - this will be a free telephone based informal consultation to understand what you are looking for and how I may be able to help you. When and if you decide to go ahead, I will explain the process and send you out further details and information. This is all free and done prior to starting your first session, so that the first session is completely yours and you are not paying for any admin.

Open ended sessions

For some clients, they may want an open ended amount or  unlimited amount of sessions. This allows clients to discuss whatever they need to, in their own time and at their own pace. Psychotherapy can often be long-term, but you, as the client are always in control of how long you want to come for therapy. We will have regular reviews which will help us to plan for future sessions and give us an understanding of how many more sessions you feel you need.  All sessions last 50 minutes and will start and end promptly to ensure no client is ever left waiting. Sessions cost £40. 

Set of 6 sessions

For some clients, they may have something specific they want to discuss and feel they only need a few sessions to achieve what they want to achieve. For other clients, funds may be an issue and knowing that you are only having a certain amount of sessions can help you feel more secure in budgeting for your mental health. If you feel this is the case, by knowing you are only having a set of sessions can help us to cover what is most important to you in the timeframe we have. You are always welcome to book more sessions as and when you need. Sessions cost £40 and will last for 50 minutes

One off session - A Psychotherapeutic Conversation

If you are new to counselling and therapy and not sure if it is for you, maybe you would prefer to try a one off session. Maybe funds are tight and cannot invest in your mental health on a weekly basis at this time. No one should not be able to access counselling. I can offer a one off intensive session lasting for 90 minutes for £60. In this session you can off load, unburden, gain some clarity. I can help you understand what support is available and help you make a plan to improve your current situation and mental well-being. I will help you with coping strategies and you can work on these and put them into practice in your own time.

Creative therapy - life mapping with stones

Life can be complicated and difficult at times. We often have so much going on all at once it can be hard to understand what changes we need to make. Because this is so confusing we don’t make any changes and we end up in a cycle of being confused and stuck. A creative session with life stones will help you understand the aspect of your life that needs your attention the most. This will enable you to plan a way forward and take the necessary action that will lead you to feeling unstuck and improve your happiness.  Using objects (stones) in a creative way will represent different aspects of your life where I can help you to map out your life in a visual way. From here,  you can formulate a picture of your current situation and identify where you may want to make some changes.


Creative Stone therapy is a gentle introduction to psychotherapy and counselling and can be used as a stand alone session. A one off session is £25 for 30 minutes and will need to be face to face due to the nature of the therapy. 


If you find after your session you would like to try talking therapy, you can book in at anytime.


Stone therapy can be incorporated in any existing client having face to face sessions and no extra cost.

Couples Counselling

Couples counselling will be available face to face and sessions will last 70 minutes and cost £75. 

Outdoor Therapy/Walk and talk therapy

Outdoor therapy is available at standard session rate of £40 for 50 minutes in the Chelmsford area. Session are available in other places such as Leigh beach for example. Any place in nature where there is water or a green space. This could be the countryside, lake, reservoir, beach, park or nature reserve. The focus of the therapy is being outdoors and connecting with nature to improve mental well-being with the added benefit of moving around. The walk is a slow and gentle pace and opportunities to sit down. Location and prices will be agreed on an individual basis

Everyone should be able to access counselling and therapy. On occasion and under special circumstance, I offer reduced rates of counselling for people who are in need and provide evidence of low income. There is usually a waitlist for these sessions. Please feel free to make contact and enquire.
