Anita Redfern

I have availability at present and my working hours include day time and evenings.

I offer counselling in a private and confidential environment and will work with you to help you deal with any personal issues including relationships, anxiety, bereavement, abuse, work related issues and general unhappiness or dissatisfaction with life.

I work in a person-centred way which means I believe in helping you explore your thoughts and feelings in a non judgemental atmosphere where you can find your own truth, answers and way forward, the way that is right for you.

I also offer solution focused therapy which can often help with dealing with more immediate feelings/issues.

It is rarely possible to talk to family or friends in a totally free manner without feeling there may be judgements on you and without having to consider their feelings about what you have to say. Person-centred counselling with myself gives you a safe, confidential and non judgemental environment to allow yourself to fully explore your thoughts and feelings and to gain a greater understanding of yourself.

I feel that a safe relationship based on trust and understanding is vital to a positive counselling experience. I believe my job is to help us to build such a relationship in order to enable you to gain greater insight, awareness and clarity into your situation, allowing you to move forward in a positive way.

I offer an initial free 20 minute introductory session to see if we are a good fit to work together.

I can offer both daytime and evening sessions.

I trained as a Supervisor at the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy in 2017 using the Hawkins and Shohet 7 eyed model.  I believe supervision should be a safe place to freely discuss your practice and clients and to grow from this.

I am happy to work with clients working in different modalities and we can assess our fit through an initial free session.

Supervisees can expect a welcoming and warm relationship with no judgement but lots of exploration around their practice and way of being.  I believe supervision is not only about the clients but about how the counselling process affects the counsellor and also how life affects the counsellor and their practise.

I am happy to work with whatever topics supervisees bring.

I offer a free 20 minute initial introductory session for us to assess if we are a good fit to work together.
