What is Counselling?
Counselling is the opportunity to talk to a trained person about your problems. It will be confidential, genuine, authentic, non judgmental and empathic. The counsellor will trust in your ability to resolve your own issues given the above responses in counselling.
FEES
Counselling must be paid for in cash or a cheque with a current cheque guarantee card. My charge is £45 for an hour of counselling (negotiable,) £30 an hour for trainee counsellors and £60 an hour for couples. Longer sessions are available if required. A brief idea of the problem would be helpful when you phone to make an appointment.
SUPERVISON
I also offer supervision and charge £45 an hour or £30 an hour for trainee counsellors/ £35 for counsellors in paid jobs who are in voluntary placements and who are working towards BACP accreditation.
CONTACT INFORMATION
I will reply to e-mail messages text or mobile messages usually within 24 hours, unless of course I am on holiday or ill, giving you an appointment time which would normally be within a week. My e-mail address is carolan07@hotmail.co.uk
Accessibility; My counselling room is on the ground floor but there are two steps to negotiate in order to enter it. I have use of rooms elsewhere which are more accessible if required.
Parking: There is parking near to the premises.
I have regular supervision and my supervisor belongs to a governing body which has an ethical framework and adheres to the same ethical framework as myself. I will always protect your anonymity when discussing your case with my supervisor. I may suggest other agencies or professionals that I think you might find helpful to contact as well as or instead of myself if I consider it appropiate.

Abuse, anxiety, bereavement, depression, eating disorders, relationship problems, loneliness, alcohol problems, identity, self esteem, stress, confidence, suicidal feelings, unemployment/redundancy etc.

Usually clients feel more positive and in a better frame of mind after a few sessions of counselling. A change in self esteeem is often experienced and an ability to see things more clearly for yourself.
