Common Questions

What is the difference between counselling and psychotherapy?

Counselling is typically focused on specific issues or life challenges, providing practical solutions and emotional support. Psychotherapy is a more in-depth, long-term process aimed at understanding the root causes of your difficulties and fostering lasting personal growth and resilience.

How long does a typical session last?

Our sessions are 50 minutes long. This duration allows for a deep and reflective exploration of your thoughts and feelings, providing the space needed for meaningful progress and insight.

Can I book a session online?

Absolutely. I offer both in-person sessions in Sale, Trafford, and Manchester, as well as remote sessions via video call. This flexibility ensures you can access support from wherever you feel most comfortable and safe.

What if I don't have the right words to start with?

You don't need the right words. As a person-centred counsellor, I am here to listen and help you explore your experiences. We start with a gentle, non-judgmental space where you can simply be.

How do I know if I'm ready to start therapy?

Ready is a personal threshold. If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or simply want to gain clarity and perspective on your current life challenges, you may be ready to begin your journey with me.
