About me and my therapy practice
Please allow me to introduce myself as Gill; I am an integrative counselling practitioner which includes Person-Centred theory (Humanism), Psychodynamic theory as this acknowledges a client’s life experiences that have influences on who they are and decisions that have been made; Cognitive Behavioural theory, Solution Focus theory, Play and Creative theory
My clinical practice is working with children from the age of 4 years and over, young people and adults. For professionals and organisations I offer clinical supervision.
I understand that taking the time to find a therapist that who fits your needs can be overwhelming and exhausting. It takes careful consideration. Counselling provides the opportunity to explore issues in a safe and confidential space with a professional and not someone who is part of your personal community.
I have been employed within a variety of diverse settings (schools and organisations) as a counsellor in children’s, young people’s and adult services. Alongside this, my career has included lecturing in Higher Education at BA (Hons) level for 10 years.
My clinic is accessible at Greencroft Industrial Park, and I am available for long-term or short-term face-to-face sessions, online via Zoom and telephone sessions.
