Avril Scott

Counselling sessions are held either face-to-face in Pocklington or online via Zoom, or by telephone, on the following days:

Tuesday        9am - 6pm

Wednesday 9am - 6pm

Thursday      9am - 4pm

It takes courage to make these first steps. Life can be challenging; presenting us with all sorts of obstacles. Sometimes we just need to talk to someone who will listen without judgement; who does not 'give advice' but simply holds the space for reflection, growth, and development.

I am a registered and accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and adhere to their Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions and am a BUPA recognised Counsellor.

I work with adults (aged 25+), across a broad range of emotional and mental health concerns such as anxiety, stress, sadness, low self-esteem, through to emotional self-care, and personal development.

I use an integrative approach whereby I am able to flexibly draw on different theoretical approaches to understand and meet your needs. I also work relationally, which focuses primarily on the relationship between client and therapist. This is built around trust, respect, safety, and empowerment. Kindness and compassion are fundamental. I am also trained and qualified in EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) which is an effective method and NICE recommended way of working with trauma.

Allowing yourself to receive regular weekly support is the first step towards feeling a sense of relief. Somewhere you can be listened to, heard, and be completely understood. You are unique, and the way in which you experience your problem is specific to you, therefore therapy is individually tailored to your needs.

If you'd like to book an appointment, please message me via the contact form on this page or call me on 07591 262373.

It is important to find the right therapist for you. 

As a BACP Registered/ Accredited Counsellor, and Bupa Recognised Counsellor with over 22 years' experience, I have previously worked for Insight IAPT Services, York University, & York St. John University, both Humber & York Teaching NHS Foundation Trusts, where I have supported clients experiencing a diverse range of mental health issues. I currently support members of staff working within the NHS, as well as having a successful private practice.

My specialisms are in working with adults who struggle with emotional self-care, anxiety, depression, anger, low mood, work related stress, trauma, and individuals experiencing difficulty in relationships (but not couple counselling). I support adults to explore, make sense of, and learn how to manage uncomfortable feelings, or difficult life challenges, in order for them to find a way forward and have peace of mind.

Often past experiences can cause problems and behaviours in the present, and therefore we may need to explore this in order for you to move forward with your future life goals.

Fee: £60 per 50-minute session.

Therapy Sessions are usually weekly at the same day and time. We will have regular reviews, to ensure you are getting what you need from our work together.

It is important to find the right therapist for you.  That is why I offer a free 20 minute, no-obligation, consultation either via Zoom or by telephone, where we can discuss what you want support with at this time, how counselling can help, and whether we feel that we're compatible to work together.
