Maureen Fenner

 Hello.

I offer sessions through video conferencing, or phone and hours of work are Monday to Saturday 10 - 6.  Please feel free to leave me a voicemail or text outside of these hours and I will usually contact you within 24 hours.  

I aim  to be flexible to as flexible your needs as possible.

Thank you.

I work with couples and individuals and my aim is to help my clients find a way through the issues that are making them unhappy. My work model is integrative  and humanistic which means that I use whatever method I feel is most appropriate to the client, and this becomes apparent as our work progresses to help my clients find their own way through to a more contented place in their lives.

 I believe that the most important relationship any of us have is the relationship we have with ourselves.

How we feel about ourselves  informs decisions and choices we make in our lives, such as the people we choose to be in relationships with; how we expect to be treated and how we treat others.  If we can reach a comfortable honesty with our inner 'self', we can feel happier in our relationships and take some control. Through our work  together, we will look at your unhappiness; and see whether the route of this lies in historical, or more present issues.  Whatever the cause, I can help you find your way through towards a more content life. 

I am also a bereavement counsellor, working with families experiencing loss as well as clients with life limiting conditions at a local hospice.

  My practice continues to help clients on phone and Facetime medium.

Our first session which is free, will be an assessment which is an initial phone call lasting up to 30 minutes.  This gives me the opportunity of explaining to you how I work as a counsellor, and also to explain my working agreement with you and I will email you a copy of this.  The Agreement between us is the hub of our work and you will see this covers things such as agreeing on a mutually convenient time for our sessions and how my fees are payable.  I ensure this is acceptable to us both before our work begins.

The assessment is the time for you to share with me your thoughts and worries so that I can tailor my work to your needs, ensuring you receive the most effective work from me as a counsellor.

I offer humanistic supervision, incorporating an integrative model as and when required, and I work with clinical and non clinical supervisees.  As a  Supervisee you have the opportunity to self reflect and  share client work  with me,  within a welcoming and open environment. I will support you as you  check in with your own feelings and emotions, in a confidential and collaborative space,. I encourage a positive and trusting working relationship between us to form as our work continues.

When you contact me I will arrange with you a mutually convenient time for us to assess your requirements as a supervisee.  

This assessment  will be free and last for 30 minutes.
