Donna Wade

I see clients Tuesday - Friday for face-to-face sessions in Hertford or in Hitchin. I also offer online sessions.

Please get in touch for current availability

I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor, with lots of experience working in the world of mental health and wellbeing.

I offer a welcoming and safe space where together we can explore and reflect upon whatever difficulties or feelings you may be experiencing, directed by your pace and focused on your needs. 

My approach to counselling is psychodynamic which involves thinking about how past experiences inform the present. Sometimes, making links between past and present or being able to identify repeating patterns can be the key to unlocking the places in life where we have felt stuck. I believe that building a trusting therapeutic relationship provides the safety and the opportunity to go on this journey and to make lasting change.

I work with anyone age 16+ for either open-ended counselling or shorter term work.

I offer weekly sessions which can be in-person in either Hertford or Hitchin, or they can be online. Appointments last for 50 minutes and take place at the same time each week. 

I offer a free 20 minute consultation by telephone or video to explore whether or not we would like to work together.

If we decide to commence into weekly counselling, then our first introductory session will involve an exploration of your history and experiences and what has brought you to counselling at this time. Future sessions will be client led and will happen at the same time each week.
