I offer sessions using a sliding scale pricing model based on the Green Bottle Method.

I ask clients to choose the fee level that feels manageable, fair and sustainable for their circumstances where possible.

Generally:

£70 reflects my standard working rate.

£55 is intended for those who need a more accessible option, whilst still being able to contribute consistently.

£40 is reserved for people experiencing limited income or circumstances that may otherwise make ongoing support inaccessible.

I also hold a limited number of concessionary spaces at reduced rates where possible. These are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, depending on availability and capacity. *I currently do not have any concessionary spaces available.

If you are unsure which option feels right for you, you are welcome to ask.

At the same time, I also believe in being honest about scope and specialism.

If you are specifically looking for highly specialist support around areas such as gender identity, sexuality or particular lived experiences, and feel you would benefit from working with someone whose practice is more deeply specialised in those areas, I am happy to help signpost or refer you to other practitioners where appropriate.

The most important thing is that you feel safe, understood and properly supported.

Yes, I do.

I work with disabled, chronically ill and neurodivergent clients within both coaching and therapy, and have worked within this area for nearly ten years.

Alongside my professional experience, I also live with chronic illness and mobility impairment myself. Whilst everyone’s experiences are different, I understand personally the complexity of navigating environments, systems and expectations that are not always designed with accessibility, fluctuation or difference in mind.

However, I do not believe meaningful support always fits neatly into predetermined timelines. Some people come for short-term support around a specific issue, whilst others choose to work more long-term to explore deeper patterns, experiences or ongoing challenges. 

 The pace and length of our work is something we can review together as we go, based on your needs, goals, capacity and what feels supportive for you at the time. There is no pressure to commit long term, and equally no expectation that things should be “fixed” within a certain number of sessions.

For others, 50 minutes may not feel long enough, particularly if there is a lot to process or untangle. Longer sessions can sometimes offer more space to settle into the work without feeling rushed. Where possible, I aim to work flexibly around your needs, capacity and what feels most supportive for you.

I am based in Kirkham, Preston.

I currently can offer in-person sessions from various locations:

✔ Lea, Preston, which is based upstairs and, unfortunately, is not accessible due to three large steps into the building and limited space.

✔ Blackpool, South Shore. This is an accessible venue, although parking is limited. 

Many people find online or telephone sessions feel more accessible, manageable and comfortable, particularly when navigating disability, chronic illness, fatigue, anxiety, overwhelm, parenting responsibilities or fluctuating capacity.

I offer a sliding scale pricing structure using the Green Bottle Method, which is designed to make support more accessible whilst also keeping the work sustainable within private practice.

This allows people to choose from different fee levels based on their circumstances, financial capacity and access to resources.

I also hold a limited number of concessionary spaces for people experiencing more significant financial difficulty.

These spaces are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, depending on availability. Currently, all concessionary spaces are filled, although this can change over time.

Telephone therapy and coaching work in much the same way as in-person sessions.

We would still meet at an agreed time, work confidentially and create a space that feels safe, supportive and focused on you. At the beginning of our work together, we would also make sure you have somewhere as private and comfortable as possible to talk openly during sessions.

Of course, there are some differences with telephone work. We cannot see each other, which means I pay close attention to tone of voice, pauses, pace, emotion and shifts in how things are being communicated.

For some, speaking without being visually observed actually feels easier and less overwhelming. Telephone sessions can also feel more accessible for people navigating anxiety, chronic illness, fatigue, disability, neurodivergence, sensory overwhelm or difficulties leaving the house.

Yes. Therapy and coaching can include conversations around sex, intimacy, relationships, identity, desire, shame, connection, boundaries or difficulties within intimate relationships.

These are often deeply human parts of people’s lives, yet many people carry fear, embarrassment or worry about bringing them into the room. You do not need to censor yourself or make your experiences sound “acceptable” in order to be supported.

As with all areas of the work, we move at your pace and within a confidential, respectful and professional space.

You do not need to arrive already knowing the answer to that.

Many people reach out feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted or disconnected from themselves, but are unsure whether what they need is counselling, coaching or a mixture of both.

Traditionally, counselling tends to focus more on emotional wellbeing, relationships, past experiences, self-understanding and processing what is happening internally.

Coaching is often more future-focused and practical, supporting people to move forward, make changes, build confidence, create structure or navigate specific challenges.

In reality, human beings are rarely that neatly separated. Often, the two naturally overlap. You do not need to have the “right” words before reaching out.
