Anita Maidment

I will be offering in person sessions in beautiful rooms in Halwill Junction very soon.

Sessions will be on a Wednesday from mid October. Earlier sessions may be available at this venue or in Okehampton.

The Halwill rooms have a few steps to access.

I am an integrative counsellor working one to one with adults aged 18+. I use person centred methods to build our therapeutic relationship, which means I hold you at the centre of all we do and you are in control of each session and what we cover. I can use Gestalt, trans-personal and cognitive behavioural therapies where appropriate to best support you. Sometimes talking is difficult or just isn't enough. I can offer creative approaches such as using imagery, drawing or sand play to help you explore the issue you bring.

I work with a wide range of issues, including bereavement, health concerns, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. Sometimes it might be more of a sense of feeling stuck but not knowing quite why. 

When you contact me we will arrange a time to talk on the telephone if you would like. This gives you an opportunity to get a feel of whether you might want to book a session and I offer this free of charge. 

Following that call, if you wish to book a session, I will email you some information including how to pay for your session. 

At your first session we will explore a bit more about what brings you to counselling and what you would like to achieve from it. We will take things at a pace that feels comfortable to you. If at the end of that session we both feel that we can work safely together, we can book further sessions from there.

Sessions are currently available on Wednesdays

Sessions additionally available on Thursdays from mid-October. 

Both Okehampton and Halwill sites have light and airy rooms. 

The Okehampton rooms are wheelchair accessible with disabled spaces outside. 

The Halwill rooms have a few steps to access and parking on site.

You first session will follow a phone call where we can begin to get to know each other and you can decide whether you wish to book a session with me.

At this first session we will explore what it is you want to bring to counselling, what you hope to get out of it, and make sure that we can work safely together. I aim to ensure you feel comfortable and safe and we will work at a pace that suits you.
