Jeannette Roddy

I work as an integrative counsellor, primarily from a person-centred perspective. This means working with whatever you choose to bring to the session using ideas, theories and techniques from CBT, psychodynamic and other therapeutic philosophies that I feel will be helpful. I believe that it does not matter where we start, we will find the things that matter most to you together and explore those when you are ready to do so. For some individuals, that will be the first session and for others it may take a little longer.

I qualified as a counsellor in 2009 and over the years, I have worked with people who have experienced many different things within their lives, from bereavement to adult or childhood abuse, from difficulties at work to loss of self and who we are. These experiences bring a range of diagnoses but ultimately it is in processing life events that relief from symptoms can be achieved.

I can work with you on a short-term basis to address particular issues concerning you today, or on a longer-term basis if you have significant life events that you would like to explore in more depth.

I currently work from the Counselling Centre in the Mary Seacole Building, University of Salford, Frederick Road Campus and am available here on Tuesday from 6pm or Wednesday from 5pm. The building is readily accessible by road and public transport and has disabled access.

Concessions

It is sometimes helpful for someone to meet their counsellor first, before committing to counselling, and I am happy to offer an initial 30-minute session free of charge if that would help.

Exceptions to work

As I teach on the counselling and psychotherapy professional training programmes at the University of Salford, I will not be able to work with any students who are currently registered on those programmes.

I qualified as a counsellor in 2009 and over the years, I have worked with people who have experienced many different things within their lives, from bereavement to adult or childhood abuse, from difficulties at work to loss of self and who we are. I completed training as a supervisor in 2013 and have worked as a supervisor of qualified practitioners working with adult clients since then. 

I can work with you on a short-term basis to cover absence or illness of your current supervisor, or on a longer-term basis if you are looking for regular supervision.
