Shakeera Price

My practice hours are 10am-5pm Monday to Thursday. 

Well done for taking the first step to accessing support and alleviating some of the distress you are feeling. This is often the hardest step and the most daunting one but I hope that reading my profile encourages you to take the next step and begin your therapeutic journey.

As an experienced integrative therapist, I am skilled in providing person centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and attachment based therapy. This integrative approach enables me to be responsive to your needs and tailor the therapy to suit your specific concern. I am experienced in helping adults and young people to overcome anxiety, build self- esteem and confidence, fight depression and low mood, achieve healthy relationships and manage intense or overwhelming emotions such as anger.

I have worked with people suffering from complex and enduring mental health issues and I am therefore well practised in a range of interventions to facilitate change where there is distress.

I am a registered and accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and I have extensive experience working in education, welfare to work and in charitable organisations. I have also worked in a forensic setting with clients with very complex and multifaceted issues from diverse backgrounds.

Qualifications: BSc Degree- Counselling Psychology, MSc degree- Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Recent Training Courses: Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Applied Suicide Intervention skills Training, Working with Obsessive compulsive disorder, Substance Misuse,Brief alcohol assessment and advice, Safeguarding, Domestic Violence training: working with perpetrators, Anger management: Working with ex offenders.

All therapy is provided within an empathic and non judgemental environment to support you to gain an increased understanding and awareness of yourself and to help you work towards realising and achieving your goals.

Sessions are conducted in a private, comfortable and welcoming counselling room. 

Before starting regular sessions, it is important to have an assessment session to see how we feel about working together.

​In an assessment session, we will spend 50 minutes together. During this time, we will talk about the reasons you decided to access therapy and what you would like to gain, change or do with your sessions.

​We will also agree a contract of working which outlines what you can expect from me as your counsellor, and outlining confidentiality, data protection etc.

​If we decide to go ahead after the initial assessment session, we will discuss the frequency of your sessions and book in your next appointment.
