Linda Linton

I offer face to face counselling, or via phone or other media such as Skype, Microsoft Teams, Facetime or Zoom.  

I understand that the thought of making that initial contact with a counsellor can be difficult.  However, in making that first step it can feel like a relief just to email or call and know you have made that move towards having support and understanding of your own unique situation.

I am happy to communicate in whatever way you feel comfortable with - phone, text, email, etc and my aim is always to help you to feel safe and secure with that first contact.    

My objective as a counsellor is to help you with areas of your life that you may be finding difficult and offer you support and understanding in helping you to resolve these difficulties.  I am open, supportive and non-judgemental.  I believe a counsellor's role is to examine with care what may be troubling you and to help you find a way to manage your issues.  

Finding a counsellor to suit you is extremely important - as the counselling relationship builds, you need to feel comfortable with the person you are working with so that mutual trust can be established in a safe, confidential environment.

I trained as an integrative counsellor and qualified in 2004. I use a number of theories in my practice which I tailor to the individual client's needs.

Please contact me if you would like an informal discussion or are unsure of any areas regarding counselling - I will be happy to help you. 

I have carried out individual and couples counselling since 2004 and am experienced in working with many issues such as depression, anxiety, bereavement, addictions, lack of esteem, etc.
