Compassionate listening: Sharing Your Journey with a Person-Centred Counsellor
Hello, Im Julie, I'm a BACP registered counsellor with extensive experience working with adults and teenagers, addressing challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, bereavement, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, ADHD, autism, and sexual abuse. I aim to make counselling feel comfortable and welcoming. To help you feel at ease, I offer an initial phone call for new clients to ask questions and learn about our potential work together.

About me and my practice
Here's what I can offer:
- A welcoming, safe, and supportive space where you can freely discuss and explore what's on your mind.
- My counselling approach is person-centred, which means I prioritise letting you lead the sessions at your own pace. We work together collaboratively; my role is not to dictate but to support you in understanding yourself better and finding your own answers and pathways forward.
- Confidentiality is the highest priority in our sessions, ensuring that whatever we discuss remains private to enable a sense of safety and trust.
- You'll find warmth, empathy (meaning I'll truly try to understand how you're feeling), and a non-judgmental approach, which will help you feel accepted and confident to be yourself during our sessions. Your wellbeing is my foremost concern.
If you're interested in working together, please feel free to contact me.
Experience
In addition to seeing clients privately, I also work with a local charity, offering counselling to adults and young people from various backgrounds with different issues. This involves counselling at a local school for students aged 11-18, which has been a really rewarding experience.
I've supported clients dealing with various challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, grief, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, ADHD, Autism, and sexual abuse, among others.
I'm registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and I'm committed to continuing my professional development. Recently, I've taken courses in Working with Children and Young People, Understanding the Impact of Pornography, Internet Safety, Suicide & Self-harm, and more.
