Diane Blenkiron

I offer in-person and online counselling sessions. 

An initial 20-minute telephone consultation is free. 

Have recent events left you feeling isolated or overwhelmed? Is each day a struggle? 

I am a person-centred counsellor with an accepting and gentle approach. You choose the themes and we discuss them together.

Talking to a trained counsellor can help you gain an understanding of your thought patterns, decision-making processes and the view you have of yourself. It is a safe and confidential space to talk about your uncertainties, doubts, and fears. I understand that reaching out for counselling can feel daunting, especially when you're feeling drained or unsure of what to expect. 

During counselling, we work together as you explore past experiences, share your current feelings or work towards personal growth.

I work with adults of all genders and specialise in bereavement, loneliness, isolation and social anxiety but offer support to those with low self-esteem, depression, stress/anxiety or trauma. 

For those in the HG3, HG2 & HG1 areas, I am able to arrange in-person sessions. Additionally, I offer nationwide online counselling that can provide a highly effective and convenient way of accessing therapy.

To establish if counselling is right for you, I offer a free 20-minute telephone consultation. It would enable me to understand the difficulties you are experiencing, and we can decide whether to work together.

At the first session, we will complete basic administration together, establish your reasons for seeking counselling and identify the themes you would like to discuss.
