About me
You may feel overwhelmed, struggling to process thoughts and emotions. Past experiences may seem to hold you back from enjoying life. You’re not alone — reaching out is a brave step. I’m Francesca, a compassionate counsellor in East Horsley, Surrey. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings, find clarity, heal, and rediscover hope. I still remember how scary my own first step into counselling felt — nervous, unsure, wondering what it would be like. I see that same courage in every person who contacts me, and it’s powerful. With over 6 years of experience, I offer a warm and accepting space where you can feel truly heard and supported as you explore whatever is on your mind. I have experience supporting people with a wide range of difficulties, including: Anger and stress Anxiety Attachments and relationship patterns Burnout Depression Grief and loss Life changes and transitions Relationship problems Self-esteem and self-worth I also have personal experiences of being a carer for someone with Alzheimer’s. As an integrative counsellor, drawing on a range of approaches to suit your needs. Person-centred practice is at the core of everything I do. I believe counselling should be warm, supportive, and collaborative. I offer a confidential, non-judgemental space where you lead the way—at your own pace and without pressure or expectations. As an NCPS-registered counsellor, I ensure all sessions are confidential. How I work with you Counselling is more than just a conversation—it’s a journey toward understanding yourself and creating a fulfilling life. Here’s what you can expect when we work together: A Safe, Confidential Space: Share your thoughts and feelings openly in a warm, trusting environment where you are truly heard and valued. Personalised Support: You guide our sessions at a comfortable pace, focusing on what matters most to you. Empowering Insights: Together, we’ll explore your emotions and experiences to uncover insights that help you feel more connected and in control. A Path to Healing: Whether you’re managing anxiety, processing past challenges, or seeking clarity, I’ll walk alongside you to foster growth and hope. A Caring Connection: Our therapeutic relationship is built on trust, empathy, and mutual respect, creating a foundation for meaningful change.

Session Options and Fees Therapy, built around you 🌿 A flexible space, designed for you. 🌿 Life moves at different speeds. Some weeks you might feel completely overwhelmed and need extra time to unpack everything. Other weeks, you might just need a quick, focused check-in to keep you grounded. That’s why I’m doing things a bit differently at my practice. Alongside my standard sessions, I am now offering flexible session options so you can choose the exact support you need week-to-week. 🌿30 mins (£35) – The grounding check-in Gentle check-in & in-the-moment support. A gentle session designed for maintenance, reinforcing tools, and staying connected. Ideal when life feels busy, but you still want support, or as a helpful addition to your regular sessions. 🌿40 mins (£45) – The focused reset Warm & focused steady support. A structured yet flexible session that bridges a quick check-in and deeper therapeutic work. It stays centred on your current needs while respecting your time and energy outside of the session. 🌿50 mins (£55) – The steady exploration A steady rhythm for meaningful exploration. Our classic therapeutic session. This comfortable, steady-paced session provides a comfortable rhythm for meaningful exploration and ongoing therapeutic work together. 🌿75 mins (£75) – The spacious deep dive Deeper, more spacious session. This extended session offers generous time and breathing room to gently and safely explore deeper emotions, patterns, and life experiences. How it works Once we’ve had our free initial call, we begin with a standard 50-minute first session. This gives us both time to get to know each other, understand your needs, and create a safe, collaborative way forward. After this first session, the choice is yours. You can keep a consistent session length or flexibly mix and match different durations, depending on your schedule, energy levels, and what feels right for you week to week. Where we can meet I offer both face-to-face and online sessions: Face-to-face in East Horsley, Surrey – convenient for Leatherhead, Guildford, Bookham, Cobham, Ashtead, Fetcham, Effingham, West Horsley, Walton on the Hill, and surrounding areas. Online and telephone counselling available throughout the UK. Ready to take the next step Start with a free 30-minute phone or video call to share your story, ask questions, and see if we’re a good fit. It’s a completely pressure-free space to talk about what’s on your mind and see how we can work together.
