Alison Jenkinson

I am an experienced Integrative counsellor. I have experience of working with person centred counselling, cognitive behavioural counselling, Transactional analysis and psychotherapy.

I believe counselling is about change, both in our inner and outer worlds, counselling can help us find peace and happiness, support us to leave or change unhealthy situations, sometimes counselling can simply help us accept our reality. Counselling can support you to achieve your goals and understand yourself better, it can be a place where you can begin to communicate the things it is hard to say.

I provide a safe and supportive space for you to do this sometimes-difficult work. A calm and peaceful space for you to explore your self and your life, to begin to get to know yourself better, to become more conscious. Everyone is different and I adapt my approach to meet your individual needs, we keep this under review during our work together. I aim to help you see your situation from a different perspective, to recognise where your power is, to enable you to see potential and choices rather than limitations. Counselling is an active process, one that can literally change your life.

I have been working with people in different settings for many years and use all this experience to support our work together.

If this has resonance for you, maybe counselling would be a way forward.
