Stephanie Doel

I currently have availability daytime/evening. I work Monday-Thursday. 

I trained at the Matrix College of Counselling and psychotherapy, qualifying with a BA (hons) in Integrative Counselling. This simple means that I am able to draw upon a range of approaches and techniques to tailor our sessions in a way which works best for you. 

The therapeutic relationship between myself and you, the client, is at the centre of my approach, I believe that establishing a secure base is fundamental in bringing about change and growth. I aim to provide a space where you can feel safe and secure to explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions, at your own pace and in your own way. 

Events in our lives can have an impact not just on our mental health but also our body. I believe that counselling not only involves talking but also listening and exploring what our bodies are telling us. And this is something I’m able to support you with. 

I currently volunteer as a counsellor at a hospice alongside my private practice. There, I work alongside people living with life limiting conditions, those caring for others and those who have experienced bereavement. I believe that although we all face loss in our lives at some point, we all reach it coming from our own unique path in life. So where there are similarities in grief, there is also a unique individual experience being felt. 

I run my private practice from home in Tunstall. I offer individual, face to face sessions, on a weekly/fortnightly basis. My working week is Monday-Thursday, working daytime and evenings. Feel free to email/call/message me and I will get back to you within 48hours. 

When you contact me, you can expect to receive a 45min face to face session (free of charge) in order to establish whether you would like to work with me. 

Sessions are then £50 for 1hour. 

I offer an initial 45min session, free of charge, to establish whether the sessions feel right for you.
