About me and my therapy practice

Hi my name is Alison and I am qualified with a Diploma and Foundation Degree in Integrative person Centred Counselling. I am originally from Wales but now live in the North East of England. 

I am a trained Counsellor and Psychotherapist specialising in grief, bereavement, mindfulness and meditation, integrative dialectical behavioural and psychodynamic therapy. This means I am very flexible in my approach to your needs.

If you are suffering anticipatory grief, complicated grief, bereavement, health related issues, or loss (due to life changes, retirement, redundancies, financial loss, or family life circumstances), I can support you to speak openly & freely. Together we will find a peaceful harmony in your life, and you will ‘find your strength.’

Sometimes, life becomes so busy it can overwhelm us. If this happens, our body and mind can become worn down by stressful factors. Anxiety & panic attacks may occur. If this sounds like you, I can offer some calming relaxation techniques, and coping skills to reduce your negative thoughts, emotions and feelings. Together we will work towards a positive strategy and you will ‘find your way.’

Do you have low self-esteem, confidence and self-worth? We will explore the source of your feelings and thoughts to understand the factors that have contributed to your negative thinking. Together we will start with ‘know your worth.’
