Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ

I currently have availability in my practice on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday day.

I'm Annemarie,

I appreciate that thinking about counselling can be very daunting, finding a therapist and choosing one can seem huge! So you've thought about it and now are looking, remember,

Sometimes we all need someone to listen... so who am I?

I have a PGDip in psychotherapeutic Counselling and I am a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (MÏã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ), and am bound by its Code of Ethics.

I am also a Children and Young People member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ. I have extensive experience of working with young children through to young adults.

As a member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ, I offer an integrative counselling practice, which means that I use several different modalities, including Person Centred Theory, Attachment theory, ACT (Acceptance and Commitment therapy), CBT (Cognitive behavioural therapy) and others including Mindfulness and meditation. However I am client led, and the therapeutic relationship that we establish together is the most important aspect of therapy.

I believe in a non-judgmental relationship, and by working together to find the most productive way for you to move forward and make sense of your life and it’s problems.

I provide both short term and open ended therapy. Short term therapy may be all you need if you are having problems with a particular issue, but if you have suffered with more complex issues, long term open ended therapy could be needed to help you move forward gently and safely.

I work from my home on the edge of Stoke on Trent and our first session provides an opportunity for us to meet each other. We will discuss matters such as, what has brought you to therapy and what do you want to achieve from the therapy. This session also offers the opportunity for us both to decide if we are going to be comfortable working together. 

I will talk though with you about confidentiality, fees, and cancellations.

I'm a fully qualified Supervisor.

I gained my Post Graduate Certificate in Clinical Supervision from The Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy.
