About me and my therapy practice

Hi my name is Julie Ovett, I run a friendly and confidential Counselling Service in Parkstone, Poole. I work with adults, couples, young people and families looking at a wide range of issues including anxiety, low self esteem, relationship problems, stress, anger, abuse, depression and trauma. I work a lot using Dialectical behaviour therapy(DBT)

I became interested in Counselling when I was mentoring students with mental health difficulties. All my students were seeing counsellors so I felt I should find out more about it. I looked, loved it and the rest as they say is history.
