What I Offer

At In Toto Counselling, I offer Client-Focused Counselling Sessions, online and in person. Session would take place either remotely or in a counselling room either in preston or blackpool (address details will be shared once confirmed and discussed)

I believed that we all have it within ourselves to find the best solutions to our problems, we just need the right help and support to do so at the right time. 

During the free 15 minute introduction call, we will discuss all options of support to determine the best and most ideal options for you. 

As my practice is based in person-centred theory, I go at your pace and you are in control of the sessions. This is important to me, as I want this to be your safe place that works as best as possible for you. 

However, I would describe myself as a semi-directive therapist as I recognise sometimes we need a little direction to get us started and that we often aren't sure what we need exactly. This may feel rather daunting and the last thing I want is for you to feel any pressure with this, I assure you will we figure this out together. We can do this by setting therapy goals, discussing expectations or past experiences of therapy/support and reviewing how sessions are working for you regularly.

Following the introduction, if you feel I am the right fit for you and your needs we will proceed with the sessions. Sessions are set at 50 minutes per session, which is a therapeutic hour. If you are a couple, this is set at 1 hour 30 minutes to allow adequate time for both parties. 

Sessions will take place remotely, via the method of your choice, either video or phone calls through Telephone, FaceTime Video/Audio or Zoom. In certain circumstances, face to face may be considered if possible, depending on location and availability.

Sessions are usually once a week however, this may vary depending on your circumstances, I have some clients who prefer sessions either fortnightly, monthly or on a ad-hoc basic. I am as flexible as I can be and where it is possible to be so, as I appreciated it can be tricky to find the right time for sessions sometimes.
