My experience within counselling has been gained over 20 years, within various counselling settings including Private Practice, Cruse Bereavement Care, Victim Support, Alcohol Services, Family Centre and Hospice Care.

Currently employed and for over 7 years, three days a week, and now as Lead Counsellor, in a Children's Hospice, within a specialist trauma & bereavement Counselling Service. Supporting families experiencing and going through the toughest of times imaginable and unimaginable. Supporting through anxieties, life-limiting and life-shortening illnesses, palliative care, end of life (EOL) and complex bereavement process which follows the death of a precious loved one.
I offer you experienced, compassionate and professional counselling support.
About me and my therapy practice
I deliver support through a Humanistic-Integrative style of therapy. This means my experience informs me 'one size doesn't fit all'. I recognise and understand as a Human Being we are not mono-minded but multifaceted, multi-dimensional and complex individuals. Utilising concepts from Humanistic, Person-Centred, CBT, Psychodynamic, Bereavement, Trauma & Strength based theory and philosophies, for example.
Accruing over 20 years鈥 experience as a counselling practitioner supporting others experiencing common mental health difficulties and life鈥檚 complex conundrums.
In addition to my core qualification my extended studying and experience over the 20 years has been focused on supporting others heal from the impact of Trauma, C-PTSD, PTSD, Bereavement and anxieties and the extensive ripple effect this brings e.g. grief, loss and fear, uncertainty, attachment and dissociative concerns. I am a trauma trained, informed and experienced therapist.
Trauma leaves us feeling like a castaway, treading water or a sense of being thrown around in a tsunami or erupting volcano, creating anxieties.
I will offer you 鈥榯ools鈥 to pick up to aid your healing, together we will find your direction to peaceful shores. Where you can make sense of, heal, into post traumatic growth and into the person you choose to be, from this day forward.
People have many concerns which bring them into counselling and indeed it takes courage to acknowledge and strength to seek support from another. Especially someone you've not met before, yet the results are both rewarding and life enriching.
Our work together may explore any dimension or parts of self you may wish to bring, I am led by you and your needs, recognising and understand as Aristotle said:
"the whole is greater than the sum of its parts鈥.
We are so much more than we think we are.
Practice description
My focus is on you and supporting you to 鈥渇eel better鈥, layering building blocks of 20 years of experience, skills, and knowledge, including a depth of self-awareness and insight, Working collaboratively with you to explore what you need here and now, to support your holistic well-being.
I offer you a grounded presence of safety, listen and hear you, offering time and attention within an empathetic, and confidential environment. A space to support you to untangle, understand and discover aspects of yourself that perhaps you haven鈥檛 noticed and put to good use before. This will lead to you making informed choices and taking mindful actions, whilst shifting and mastering your emotions, so they are not the master of you.
This may feel daunting as you read, typing I reflect upon the words of Lao Tzu, the Chinese philosopher who said:
鈥淎 journey of a thousand miles began with the first step"
The next step is to contact me so we can start walking along your healing and development path and aim for your fullest potential, together we can discover what that might be for you.

Supporting you to create informed choices and decisions for your overall well-being, creating connections, peace of mind and resourceful living.
My first session
- I offer a free meet and greet session which can last up to 45 minutes. This is so we can both meet and assess if we 鈥榗lick鈥 get a feel of each other鈥檚 presence and feel if we are able to go forward into a therapeutic working alliance. Relationships are important and our relationship can impact your well-being, so its important you work with a practitioner 鈥榳ho gets you鈥, who works for you, so you gain the most from your sessions. Trusting your felt sense and instincts can support you to know if we are a good match.
- For you to clarify your hopes, expectations and goals of what you want to gain from your personal therapy. To ask any questions you may have 鈥 this is an on-going process. Does your idea of counselling match with what I offer? What do you need to know about the way I work? Do you have any doubt about the counselling process? Ask as many questions as you need there is no 鈥榯rivial鈥, 鈥榙aft鈥 or 鈥榮illy鈥 question, all questions are valid.
- For me to hear your past and present narrative, what concerns you, what challenges you are facing, situations and events you find difficult. What brought you to counselling here and now. Ensuring I can tailor your support to your individual needs and choose the most suitable awareness, skills, knowledge, tools and strategies for you and your situation.
- Once we agree to go forward our first 60 minute session be mutually agreed upon (date/Time)will start with me undertaking a short assessment of needs, collect personal data an d agreeing the boundaries we will work within often called a counselling contract.
- Its essential for us both to be open and honest with each other if you are going to gain the most you can from our time together.

My purpose is to enable you to be supported so you are not left alone to carry or struggle with the impact from hearing clients narratives.
My experience is human beings are not mono-minded but multifaceted, complex beings. We have parts that are healthy, parts that need more nurturance and parts that are happy and content. The self being the harmonising and organising central part and the sum of the whole Being.
We will work collaboratively with creativity exploring ideas outside the box as we investigate the relationship between our mind, body, and spiritual aspects of being human. In relation to your client work.

Practice description
Supervision is essential my focus is on all dimensions of your work and care for you as the carer and holder of others and to support you to maintain effective, sustainable practice. Supervision is a safe, rich source of support, learning, reflection, time to mull over, review, compassionately evaluate, question, explore new pathways. Gain a different perspective, a space for you to breath, take stock, hear self, understand, grow and develop.
Time and space is dedicated to you and your client work, I provide a space for you to celebrate your achievements, gain affirmation for your work. Whilst gently stretching and challenging appropriately so you can reflect upon all aspects of your counselling work and grow and develop within you practice.
As a supervisor my strengths sit in my compassionate intradependent way of Being, genuine openness, receptivity to change and curiosity, offer flexibility to work with and stay with the unknown. My creativity facilitates strategies, new perspectives and renewed energies, enhancing well-being and capabilities. Flexible and adaptable within the immediacy of our supportive sessions.
I own a competent knowledge of theories ranging from Humanistic, psychodynamic, Jungian, Cognitive and Behavioural, Existential, Logotherapy, Person-Centred and Transactional Analysis.
Demonstrated in an Humanistic-Integrative style of support and how interpersonal dynamics are played out in relationships. Theory is one of the cornerstones and underpins all our counselling work along with ethics and the law. Bringing responsibility, accountability, structure, and motivation. Passion and caring about the work we offer to others seeking alleviation of suffering
I am interested in listening and hearing who you are as a counselling practitioner within a relationship where you will be received with equality, respect and valued as a person of worth.
My first session
Meeting you where you are in your work, when we first meet I often say to supervisees I believe there is no right or wrong way to counsel 鈥.. there is only ethical v unethical, lawful v unlawful and competent v incompetent ways to be in our work. Our focus in supervision will be on the fundamental ways which shape and inform our work as an ethical, lawful, and competent robust practitioner. A counsellor who makes a difference to the clients they serve.If you would like to have a chat or a 30 minute Zoom call to see if we are a good fit to develop a therapeutic alliance, please contact me to arrange.
Warmest of regards
Sue
