Counselling Gloucester

You might be looking to resolve an issue, live more fully or maybe you just want to be seen and properly heard! Whatever it might be I can offer you the hand of support.

I believe that you have everything you need but sometimes you might need space to explore how you might go about it.

Our relationship will be like no other. There will be no jargon but rather a felt experience of warmth, compassion, non-judgement and empathy felt between us. I believe that if we can achieve this in our sessions then you will have everything you need to live effectively with what you bring.

I have worked in a large corporate employee assistance programme (welfare service) offering counselling. During this time I worked with a range of clients from many backgrounds covering the majority of common mental health feelings such as anxiety, depression, stress and loss. I also have experience working with clients who present some complex needs in association with suicide ideation, abuse and trauma.

I have therapy rooms in Gloucester and Cheltenham. Both locations are discreet, are in reach of public transport and there is parking near by. I can sign in British Sign Language to a low level.

If you would like to know more or book an appointment, please send me a message.

Online therapy

I use Zoom or Telephone for online therapy. I have completed the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy Open University course to do this.

For Zoom I set up the meeting and email you the link. You click on the link at the set day and time and that is it!

For telephone I phone you so that the call is free to you. You just pay for the therapy session itself. When I phone you I block my caller ID to ensure your confidentiality.

If we agree online therapy as a best medium for you we will discuss it before hand in order to get you up and running quickly.
