Deborah Wilson

Having therapy with me means you have a safe place to be your true self, with no judgement. It's a place where confidentiality, safety and honesty are prioritised. Relationships are key to success, such as the relationship we build together as therapist and client and the relationship you have with the outside world and all the elements within it.  

​How does it work and how does therapy help? We investigate together, the issues that bother you and won't leave you alone; the ones that trigger or simply elude. We research together to find ways to identify what's happening, finding a path for healing. This could take different forms such as talking, creative therapy, music, writing and other ways to communicate such as dream and shadow work. It's about communication - giving permission to ourselves to communicate with different tools.  Sometimes it may feel slightly odd and out of your comfort zone.  That's where true growth starts and continues.

It's a humanistic approach which means it's directed by your free-will, empowering your growth and taking control of your strengths to reach your full potential on a voyage of self-discovery.

​ How is therapy delivered? There are different options, depending on your preference. Face-to-Face,  Online,  Telephone,  Walk and Talk. 

As a therapist, I am bound by the BACP code of ethics.

Welcome to DW Psychotherapy and Counselling, a home for a varied approach to therapy, coaching / mentoring and workshops. This space is dedicated to providing a nurturing environment for personal growth and healing, placing you at the core.

We all suffer at one point or other with challenging and sometimes overwhelming issues, needing help to sort through and sometimes identify what is distressing us. A sign of strength is in the recognition and reaching out for that help.

​​You are the expert on you. It is my privilege to walk beside you on your discovery journey, providing a safe place to be and to land if things become too much. We can work together on abuse, addiction, anxiety, bereavement, cancer, career coaching, cultural issues, depression, dissociation, grief, guilt, leadership coaching, life coaching, loss, mental health issues, personal development, redundancy, self-esteem, self-harm, shame, spirituality, stress, trauma, women's issues and work-related issues.

I believe in the power of empathy, understanding, and tailored support to guide individuals through their unique journeys. I am committed to offering a safe and inclusive space for exploration and transformation. Whether you're seeking therapy, coaching, or support through grief, I am here to accompany you on your path towards holistic well-being.

When a session is booked, the contract and various policies will be emailed through to you for your information.

The first session is generally about getting to know you.  There will be a very brief assessment, I will verbally go through the contract with you highlighting salient points and the floor will be yours.
