Online Counselling

I am offering online counselling to anyone who needs it during these troubles times via Skype/Zoom/FaceTime/anything…
Nearly all my clients have gone online bar one or two – even the Imago couples are trying it out with me on Zoom but, as long as OTS therapy centre in Oxford is open and we all follow DHE advice, I am seeing clients there and will continue to do so for the time being. Obviously if anyone is ill, or I am ill or any member of our households are, we will all go online. But these are tricky times…

I imagine that many families might need some help right now or in the longterm. We are not used to being together for this amount of time without usual distractions – much good can be done but also many difficult feelings and emotions may arise. It is important we have support. My fantasy is a summer of play and fun and bonding and walking and talking – last chance before my children start peeling off in to their own lives (two will probably leave home next year). But maybe we will drive each other crazy. And couples…sometimes these enforced periods of togetherness backfire somewhat…

So, I am here with all my own projections and thoughts from what to do when estranged families are forced back together? Or how do we look at and engage with our anxiety? How so we find kindess and empathy when we are frightened/nervous? Then there’s the erotica around not being able to touch – and gloves? Don’t get me started on gloves…like being in another era – a throwback..

I am also offering reduced priced counselling for those who need it and cannot afford full price – this is while the crisis lasts with a potential commitment to review payments once the shadow has passed which I accept may take some time….
