PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT FOR INDIVIDUALS AND COUPLES
Relationships matter
starting with how you feel about yourself
Currently working online I offer positive help and support to couples and individuals with a range of issues including relationship difficulties, anxiety, and career stress.
I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgemental space for all gender, sexual and relationship diversity.
Services
Individual Counselling
(Online)
Responding to the individual needs and circumstances of each client is central to my approach. Working together with you to understand the causes of current challenges and difficulties, and to move towards finding a way forward is at the heart of the work I do as a therapist.
Some areas I can help individual clients with: relationship difficulties, compulsive sexual behaviours (including problematic use of pornography), anxiety, depression, loneliness, low self-esteem, loss and bereavement.
Fees for individual online counselling via Zoom: £65
Couples Therapy
(Online)
The decision to seek couple therapy can result from a sudden crisis in your relationship but also as a way of making sense of longer-term feelings of uncertainty or unhappiness. Taking a balanced and non-judgemental approach I work to understand areas of conflict and difference and support ongoing communication with couples.
Some areas I have experience of working together with couples on: lack of communication, conflict and anger, infidelity and betrayal, commitment, loss of desire and intimacy.
Fees for couple online therapy via Zoom: £85
Training and Group Facilitation
I am experienced with group training and facilitation, working with corporate
clients, charities and universities to deliver engaging, inclusive and energising group learning activities.
Groups can be powerful! I love bringing my skills and creativity to support collaboration and growth. Having achieved Fellowship status from Advance HE, in recognition of my professional practice in teaching and learning, I've built on my work with groups to offer a range of training and facilitation sessions.
Get in touch to learn more about how I can work together with groups to support wellbeing and engagement.

Zoom provides a confidential and professional online environment.
Cityspace Counselling was formerly based in the historic setting of Charlton House, which offered a safe and peaceful setting in South East London.
As member of the local community here in SE7, I very much hope to be able to return to work in this beautiful building,
in the heart of Charlton, at some point in the future.
The pictures on this site are taken in several of Charlton's wonderful green spaces.
