Jane Tritton

I am able to offer telephone counselling in these difficult times, whilst face to face counselling is not available.

Talking to a counsellor (me!) can be a good way of offloading or releasing long-held emotions. It can also be helpful in weighing up options and choices. You may have nobody to talk with, or maybe your usual way of dealing with issues is to ignore them and to try to get on with life. Sometimes though, maybe due to a gradual build-up or a sudden life event, it can be a struggle to keep control of emotions, or to understand them. Exploring thoughts and feelings in counselling can be a good way of coming to terms with them so that they don't get in the way of living your life.

Struggling with anxiety and depression can feel like a lonely battle, but this can be eased by sharing the experience in counselling. I am able to suggest strategies and options for progress, as well as listening and helping you to explore what is happening.

Counselling is not about offering advice or about me finding a solution for you. It is a team effort where we work together to increase awareness of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours and then you are able to consider if these would benefit from change.

My primary training is in person-centred counselling and I have gone on to train in CBT, NLP and as a Supervisor, Coach and Hypnotherpist.

I am able to use my range of skills and training to help you to progress. For students I am able to offer a completely person-centred way of working - if that is what is required. 

I work from home, and I am also able to offer telephone counselling.

I am a qualified supervisor (to level 6). I am happy to work with trainees or more experienced counsellors. I am person-centred by primary training, but use the seven-eyed model of supervision , which adapts well to therapists of other modalities. I am also trained in coaching and hypnotherapy and able to offer supervision in those areas as well.

I can offer daytime or evening appointments.
