Aine Doggett-Brookes

I currently have limited availability for new face to face clients.

Hello, I'm Áine. I am a qualified counsellor and trainee psychotherapist. I work face to face and have limited online availability. I provide a warm, collaborative and non-judgmental space in which to explore your situation, gain clarity on what you want from life and find a way of moving forward. I specialise in bereavement, anxiety, depression.

I work in private practice and have worked in the charity sector with a range of issues including bereavement, loss, trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, depression and anxiety. I offer open-ended long-term therapy and short-term counselling. I believe that weekly therapy forms routine and consistency which offers a strong foundation for the therapeutic process; therapy sessions are at the same time and day every week.

I work to BACP's ethical framework and code of practice and am undertaking a post-graduate certificate in Existential Analysis, and keep up to date with developments within psychotherapy. I work with adults on a variety of different issues such as stress, self-harm, isolation, suicidal feelings, LGBTQIA+ specific issues, low self-esteem, work issues, identity issues and childhood abuse, among others. My specialism is in bereavement and loss.

I hold face to face sessions at my comfortable, accessible consulting room in Central Milton Keynes.

I offer a first, short, introductory call to see how we get on. If you feel that we might work well together we can arrange future sessions from here. If, for any reason, you don't feel that you wish to continue with me, I will seek to help you find another more suitable Counsellor, or maybe a different way to explore your presenting issues. It is important that you feel comfortable with me to enable us to work together on what is ailing you.
