Yes, you can choose to switch between online and face-to-face sessions based on your preference and convenience, subject to availability. I tend to fence off Monday pm slots for F2F work. If you've signed up for F2F work but can only attend the session online, I'll deliver your session online.


In your first session, we will discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations. This helps us tailor the therapy approach to suit your needs and build a trusting therapeutic relationship.


You can book a session by contacting me through my website contact form, email at ggcounselling1@gmail.com, or phone on 0734 093 2656. I will respond promptly to schedule a 20 minute non-obligation call that fits your availability.


Yes, I do, and I also work collaboratively with other health care professionals when appropriate to support your wellbeing.


Typically, counselling sessions last about 50 minutes. Single Session Therapy also lasts 50 minutes. If a session scheduled for 3pm, starts at 3:15 pm due to late arrival of the client, it still finishes at 3:50 pm.


Integrative Counselling combines elements from different therapeutic approaches. In my case, this includes Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), Transactional Analysis (TA), and Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), to create a personalized therapy plan that best suits your individual needs and goals.


Yes, absolutely. Everything discussed is confidential and protected by ethical guidelines. The only exceptions are if I believe there is an immediate risk of serious harm to yourself or others, which is something we discuss fully during our first session (contracting).


My face-to-face counselling sessions are conducted in Manchester, at Bodywise / Buddhist Centre, 16-20 Turner Street, M4 1DZ.

5 min walk from Shudhill tram stop/buss station, 5 walk from Market St tram stop, and 5-10 min from Piccadilly Gardens.


Single Session Therapy, also known as OnePlus Therapy, is a 3-step process, with a focused and intensive counselling session at its heart, designed to provide immediate support and tools that you can use right away, often helpful for addressing specific issues.


To respect both our time, I require 48 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Sessions cancelled with less notice may be subject to the full fee.


In advance by bank transfer (bank details are in the Therapy Contract) or in cash at the start of a session.
