Counselling in the Comfy Chair is a shared practice space offering both general counselling as well as workshops focused on wellbeing and relationships.
The counsellors who work here practice independently, allowing you to choose the practitioner and approach that best fits you.
The first session is a chance to meet each other; to talk about what’s bringing you to counselling and the positive changes and direction that you would now like your life to be heading towards.
It’s also a great opportunity to see whether working together feels like a good fit for you!
Sessions are either 60 or 90 minutes.
Frequency is tailored to your needs, goals, and availability.
Yes. Counselling is confidential, with some legal and ethical limits. Your counsellor will explain confidentiality and its limits in your first session, and you can ask questions at any time.
No referral is needed. You’re welcome to book directly with the counsellor of your choice.
Yes. Both in-person and video sessions are available.
Andrew also offers walk-and-talk sessions if and where appropriate.

Choosing a counsellor is a very personal decision. Reading the counsellors’ pages can help you get a sense of their style, areas of focus, and how they work.
If you’re unsure, you’re welcome to contact us with general questions before booking.
Walk-and-talk counselling takes place outdoors while walking at a comfortable pace.
Many people find that movement helps them think and speak more freely.
Often the first sessions consist of an individual session for each partner on their own, so that Kirrily can hear from both people and what their concerns and hopes are, in a calm, safe and non-pressured environment.
After each partner has had their individual 60min session with Kirrily, both partners are usually brought together for all the next, sessions.
Should you wish to cancel or reschedule your session, our practitioners will require at least 24 hours notice, so that they may offer your session time to someone else.
If you give less than 24 hours or forget to attend, you will be charged the full session fee.
No. We do not provide crisis or emergency services.
