About me and my therapy practice
My name is Marcie and I am a qualified integrative counsellor, committed to providing compassionate, professional support to adults seeking a safe place to talk and explore their experiences.
Life can sometimes bring up difficulties that cause us to feel we have lost ourselves a little, but equally we may feel shattered by our experiences and unable to put our pieces back together. I believe every person deserves to be listened to with empathy and respect. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to provide a safe therapeutic relationship built on trust, understanding, acceptance and collaboration to help you move through these difficulties, no matter how daunting.
I approach my work in a way that is tailored to you, as I draw on a number of theoretical approaches such as CBT, Person centred and psychodynamic therapies, in a pluralistic approach to address your specific needs.
Having undertaken training in a domestic abuse counselling service, I have gained detailed experience and knowledge in trauma, grief, loss, domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, divorce issues, coercive control, C-PTD, ADHD, eating disorders, childhood trauma and parenting as well as having 10 years experience in adoption and fostering .
Practice description
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming. You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship difficulties, stress or simply feeling that something isn't quite right. Reaching out for counselling can feel like a big step, I know, because I've done it for myself and I found it daunting at first, but you don't have to face your difficulties alone.
I offer a warm confidential and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, explore your experiences, and work towards positive change at a pace that feels right for you.
Whether you're facing a specific challenge or looking to understand yourself more deeply, I am here to support you on your journey.
My first session
I offer a 15 minute free assessment phone call, for me to discuss how we might work together.
After that if you would like to go ahead, I would book you in for a face to face 50 minute session at my office in Stockton-on Tees.
The first session would then involve gathering some information from you sighing a contract and exploring a plan for how we will work together.
