Julia Summers

I work flexibly with clients providing one off sessions, short and long term work.  Clients work weekly, fortnightly or monthly, some have 'top up' sessions as and when required.

I work face to face with clients at the Wilmslow practice or online UK wide.  

Sessions are available during weekdays, evenings and Saturday mornings.  

I offer a number of spaces at a reduced rate to clients if it would affect their ability to access counselling with me otherwise.  

I offer a counsellor and student counsellor discount.

I am an integrative therapist and have many years experience working with a huge range of clients and issues.  I work with young adults, adults and couples. 

I typically work on helping clients to manage everyday struggles and challenges whilst also searching for the underlying root causes and working on those.

I have extensive experience working with complex trauma, PTSD, childhood difficulties, relationship issues including those that are unhealthy and/or involve codependency and/or narcissistic traits, anxiety and self esteem problems.

Sessions are tailored to your individual needs and generally include talking therapy aswell as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), somatic or Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work, Transactional Analysis etc.  I am really passionate about my work and I keep up to date with new theories and practices in order to support you as best as I can.

I am a trauma therapist and offer Rewind Trauma Therapy which is growing in popularity due to its quick results.

As well as counselling I am a trained coach so we can incorporate this into your sessions also if you wish.  Clients who are changing circumstances find this can be helpful.

I am LGBTQ and transgender friendly.

You can be assured a friendly welcome and a professional service with me.  I am a down to earth person who has experienced a lot of serious and significant challenges at different stages in life.  I know what it's like to struggle and feel hopeless, when anxiety is completely overwhelming or you are reacting in ways that don't feel like you.  I know change is completely possible though and we can find ourselves in new places and feeling very differently.  I am so passionate about counselling because I know how much good change it can do.
