Teresa Parkinson

I am an integrative Counsellor and tutor level2/3 and 4. I am also a supervisor. I especially welcome any student counsellors who are already in placement.

I am an integrative counsellor and can work in person or online, I offer supervision using models that would work with you, trainees and qualified counsellors welcome. 

I offer a free initial consultation, this is for us to discuss what working together may look like. 

This is totally non obligatory, you need to feel you have found  the right supervisor for you. 

Hello my name is Teresa and I am a qualified Counsellor and a registered member of the BACP. 

I believe that Counselling should be there for everyone and I will be here for your voice to be heard in a non-judgemental empathic and safe environment

I have been working in a caring capacity for over 30 years. 

I have been trained in and have volunteered in a DV charity, as well as assisting in the setting up of a new counselling provision in a charity   

I trained in bereavement and loss therapy, within a local charity and I  have an added interest in Pet bereavement therapy as pets are a huge part of our lives. 

As well as these I have had over 18 years of working and caring for mental health and mental wellbeing. 

The thought of Counselling can be daunting and my aim is to work with you within a safe therapeutic working relationship, by putting you at the heart of the work in which we will do together. 

I am currently working online, walk and talk and can offer home visits  

This is a meet and great session, it will be an opportunity for you to decide whether you feel comfortable working together. We will also look at goals and what may and may not work for you in regard of therapy structure.

There is no charge for this 

I am away from 5th August 2026 and return to work 4th September, within this time I will periodically pick up mail  

I work in an integrated way, with you at the centre of all work.

I mould around you when it comes to counselling theory.

Counselling is a brave 1st step and please know I will be walking at your pace with you   

Within my work life I have been a mental health nurse, a complex needs nurse and am currently a therapist, tutor and supervisor. 

I only ask that you are as open as you feel you can be, I will be open and nonjudgmental in return. 

It takes time to build trust and I want you to feel that you can talk freely and do this when you ready not feel rushed.
