Willow Langdale-Smith

I currently have some availability for online client work throughout the week. Please contact me for details.

I will help you to find yourself.

You already have all the skills and knowledge you need to enjoy a fulfilling life: sometimes circumstances make it difficult to see how. Person Centred Counselling focusses on your experience and concerns, giving you space to feel safe and explore without judgement, or fear of shame. 

I have Person Centred Creative Arts( PCAT)certificate training and offer creative counselling alongside traditional talking therapy: whatever you need.

I work with all age groups and welcome enquiries as such. Face to face work is better suited to young people.

My specialisms are Neurodiversity and Special Educational Needs, Creativity, Domestic Violence,  Disability and Carers, Parent and Family concerns (esp Maternity), LGBT+, Trauma, Anxiety and Depression. 

I am a nature lover and artist, and work part time as a counselling tutor, I have an MSc in Psychology, with a special interest in mental health in Parent Carers.

Talking therapy or counselling with the option of creative arts techniques, but without expectation. 

I have flexible availability online or by telephone.

Face to face work in Loughborough is currently held on Fridays.

Face to face work in Nottingham is available on Monday and Thursday afternoons between 3-6pm.

Our first appointment is to give us both an opportunity to learn about one another in a professional way, to decide if we can work together. 

In this session, I will explain in depth how I work, and will ask you some questions about your health and history. I will ask you to agree to my contract, so that we can work safely together. I welcome your questions at all stages and warmly invite you to interview me.

I will ask you to share your concerns so that I can understand what is on your mind and what you hope for from counselling.

At the end of this first session we will decide together if working together feels safe and appropriate, and will meet your needs, and plan our future meetings.

I am currently teaching CPCAB Level 2 Counselling Skills courses (2023-2024) at a training centre in the midlands. 

I am a Person Centred Counsellor in practice, working in different settings (private practice, schools) and providing professional training as a freelance CPCAB trainer.

I have 2 years experience of delivering the CPCAB Level 2 course. I am able to deliver the curriculum effectively, with a 100% pass rate in my students.
