Who?
My name is Davi (she/her) and I am the heart and mind behind Compassio.
From my earliest days, my life has been about having and demonstrating compassion for others – caring, respecting, relating at depth and supporting in any way that I can.
After a long career in management in the corporate world, where my passion to understand and work collaboratively with others underpinned my success, I have spent the last seven years gaining the knowledge, skills and experience to apply my core compassion in my role as a professional counsellor.
In this role I feel able to dedicate myself more completely to what my heart instinctively does – to serve others by sitting beside them, in their own unique search for fulfilment, resilience and growth.
It would be my privilege to sit with you.
How?
I apply the principles I have studied in a number of key counselling theories in my work and, what always matters most, is the relationship I form with you – a relationship based in trust and compassion.
From this base, I will help you reflect on your feelings, thoughts and significant patterns of behaviour so that you can address your struggle, clarify your needs, develop strategies where appropriate and find the acceptance or change you are looking for.
We may also explore different areas of your life, such as where you find meaning and belonging, your hopes and fears, your experience of significant events, how you relate to others and nurture your sense of self.
I can help you find focus if you get stuck or don’t know where to start and you can rest assured, that the content and pace of our work is always driven by you.
I am here to help.
Where?
I offer sessions online via Zoom™ video-conferencing software. This is an established, secure platform used by many online counsellors. You can find out more about Zoom at zoom.us.
I also offer face to face appointments in Wokingham, Berkshire. My therapy room is located in Wokingham town centre, which is easily accessible from surrounding towns and villages including Reading, Twyford, Ascot, Bracknell, Crowthorne and Sandhurst. Free parking is available.
When?
I have sessions available throughout the day, including evenings, from Monday to Friday.
Each session lasts up to 50 minutes and, to encourage effective engagement and process, we will usually meet at the same time, on the same day each week, unless agreed otherwise.
Fees
I offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation for all new enquiries. Thereafter, fees are £50 per 50 minute session, to be paid by bank transfer, 24 hours before each session.
