Services and fees

What can I offer?

I offer a range of counselling options so you can choose the kind of support that feels most comfortable for you. Each service is designed to be calm, accessible, and flexible, with space to move at your own pace. Whether you prefer talking, writing, or texting, we can find a way of working together that feels safe and manageable. 

I am neuro-affirming and offer text-based counselling options to make counselling accessible to everyone.

I also offer in-person support around Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance.

Services

FREE 30 minute introductory meeting

I offer a free initial meeting where you can ask questions and explore whether counselling and the services I offer might be right for you. This can be online or in person.

In-person Counselling

50‑minute session — £50 

I have a room at Wellness Works Community Hub CIC (in the former Seaham Methodist Church building) on Tempest Road, Seaham, SR7 7AY to provide face to face counselling.

I can also visit you at home if you find it difficult to leave the house for any reason.

Video Counselling

50‑minute session — £50 

A calm, face‑to‑face space online where we can explore whatever you’re carrying. This format suits people who prefer real‑time connection and conversation. Sessions are held on Microsoft Teams (you do not need a microsoft teams account and full instructions will be given).

Email Counselling

One therapeutic email (up to 1000 words) — £50

Email counselling offers time, space, and reflection. You write when you’re ready, and I reply within 24 hours on business days. This format suits people who like to process their thoughts slowly and privately. The time spent reading your email and writing a therapeutic reply will equal 50 minutes.

Text Message Counselling

50‑minute live text session — £50

A real‑time written conversation, ideal if speaking feels difficult or overwhelming

Asynchronous text message over 1 week (you receive 2 replies per week) — £35

Non‑live text support is available — for example, with asynchronous messaging you can send me short messages when you need to and I will reply to those messages twice per week.

Flexible or Custom Support

If none of the above feels quite right, we can build something together. My aim is to offer support that fits your life, your pace, and your budget.

To book directly please click the button below to my booking page where you can choose the 30 minute free session or any of the other options. For email and non-live text messaging please contact me.

If you're not ready to book, but would like to enquire, an enquiry form can be found here on my contact page.

In-person support for Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance

I aim to work with families to create a service that works for them and their child. I can visit a young person at their home or wherever they feel most comfortable and first build a relationship and teach coping skills . I can attend meetings at school with parents and talk to schools about what might help a child to re-engage. If everyone is agreeable I also offer support whilst at school, the form this might take is very individual.
