Does counselling work?
I am often asked this and my answer is always 'it can and it does but to what extent will depend on how we work together'. That is the reason we have a thorough initial assessment to establish your needs and whether I can help you fulfil them. Commitment and motivation are essential on both sides and I will do my best to put you at ease and help you address your issues.
If you would like to arrange a first meeting or simply ask some questions, please give me a call or send a text to 07505 995028. If I am unable to answer, just leave a message giving your preferred contact number and the best time to call you back. Or you can e-mail me via the website and I will reply as soon as I can.

'Beryll made me feel normal. Her manner was relaxed and this made me feel able to express my feelings and fears and with her encouragement I was able to explore the real me. As each session progressed I became more confident in myself as a person and comfortable with who I am' S, Beddington, Surrey
