Bethany Jones

I currently have availability for new supervisees. 

My working days are: 

• Wednesday (9am-6:30pm)
• Thursday (9am-6:30pm)
• Friday (9am-4pm)

I have over 6 years of experience providing supervision for volunteers, trainee counsellors and qualified counsellors. I specialise in supporting professionals who work in life limiting illnesses, end-of-life care and bereavement.

I currently work as a Clinical Supervisor at Birmingham Hospice supporting a team of multi-disciplinary staff with their wellbeing and professional development.

I am an experienced trainer and educator on the subjects of managing difficult conversations and supporting people through loss and grief. In addition to this, I have been trained by Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust to deliver SAGE & THYME communication skills workshops for professionals working in the NHS. I strongly believe that we never stop growing and developing as people, so I am committed to my own continuous professional and personal development.

I offer supervision for person-centred and integrative counsellors. Please note, I currently offer sessions either online (Microsoft Teams or WhatsApp) and telephone only. I can offer individual or group sessions.  

I offer a free 30-minute telephone or video consultation to gain a further understanding of your counselling practice and to get a feel of whether we can work together.

If we both agree to move forward, we will then arrange a time for your first appointment. 

• £60 per hour
• £70 per 1.5 hours

I do not currently have capacity to take on new clients. 

I’m Beth, a person-centred counsellor specialising in long-term illness, end-of-life care and bereavement. I have been practising as a counsellor since 2018 and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP).  

How I can help

I believe that in the same way we have physical first aid kits, we should all have emotional first aid kits too. When we cut our finger, we reach for a plaster. So, what do we reach for when we are experiencing emotional distress?

I understand that people from all walks of life will face adversity at some point and when that point comes, they will need to have an emotional first aid kit to cope. Not everybody has that kit, but I can help you to create and fine-tune it in order to work through whatever you are facing.

I will support and walk alongside you whilst encouraging self-awareness, growth and development to build a more fulfilling life for you and, consequently, those closest to you.

The way I work

I am approachable, empathetic and warm, all qualities imperative to creating a safe and confidential space for you to open up and work through any issues you are facing without judgement.

As a person-centred counsellor, I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and it is important that we work together to help you find a way to move forward. You will be at the centre of every session.

I understand that no two people’s journeys will be the same and not everyone will work in the same way. I will actively seek out feedback throughout the course of our work together to ensure that you feel you are getting the support that you need.

I currently offer sessions either online or by telephone. I also have some availability for walk and talk sessions which take place at the Lickey Hills. 

I offer a free 20-minute telephone or video consultation to gain a further understanding of your circumstances and to get a feel of whether we can work together.

If we both agree to move forward, we will then arrange a time for your first appointment.
