Change is Possible

Online  Counselling 

Gold Oak Counselling is a warm and non-judgmental space where you can talk and be listened to with empathy and honesty. I strive to help you work through your problems as you see them and towards the future that you see for yourself. 

I believe that everyone has the ability to change or make changes and there is always hope in the future. 

I am an integrative counsellor, meaning I believe that no one single theory has the answer and each person is unique. I draw on multiple theories and the therapeutic process is created around what works best for each individual.

 

I specialise in working with sexual abuse and anxiety. My therapist experience covers a diverse range of client experiences and backgrounds. 
 

I believe in equality and inclusivity. My approach is collaborative, neurodivergent affirmative, and adapted to the needs and experiences of gender, sexuality and relationship diverse clients. I am I a kink aware therapist.

I provide relationship counselling and individual therapy for teens and adults.


I offer online counselling and warmly invite you to book your free initial 20 minute session. This is to explore what you would like from counselling and see if we would work well together.

Relationship Counselling

Hearing each other 

Often couples come to counselling because they feel they are not being heard by the other person(s). This can lead to unhappiness in the relationship, anger, mistrust, sexual difficulties, relationship breakdowns and everything in between.


Couples may experience affairs, differences in sexual desire or communication difficulties. This can be a painful time in a relationship.

Counselling for couples gives both parties the opportunity to speak and be listened to and to explore deeper issues that may be underlying what is being said. I encourage clear and honest communication; to discover ways to resolve conflict and have each others needs met.  I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where any topic can be explored and heard in a trusting and secure therapeutic relationship. I am Kink aware. My practise is LGBTQIA+ affirmative. I work with a variety of relationship dynamics including polyamory and welcome all to counselling. I have experience with working with clients who are neurodivergent and have worked with couples to support their diversities through the counselling journey. 

Some of the issues that couples counselling can help include:- 
- separation and divorce- polyamory  -  sexual issues- parenting issues- financial difficulty  - infidelity - abuse - communication difficulties- major life events - self esteem - anxiety - trauma and more

Taking the first step into counselling can be daunting and bring up a range of emotions. The therapeutic relationship can help gain clarity and insight to things in your life, enabling acceptance and change

Initial session 

Taking the first step 

The initial session, which is a free 20 minute phone consultation, is a chance for us to talk through what brings you to counselling and to discuss your individual needs. I regard the relationship as integral to the counselling process and believe it is important to have a ‘good fit’ for both you and me. This session allows you to decided if I am a person you are able to work with. There is no obligation to move forward with therapy if you do not feel it is right.

I work with clients on a short term and long term basis, usually weekly to begin with, this may move to fortnightly later on. During our first session we would decide upon a day and time that best suits you. I would take your email address and send you across my contract for you to read through in your own time, before our first session. Payment is then required to secure your session with me. 

I offer 10% discount for police, fire and NHS workers.
