Profile
Chapters Counselling and Training provides a personal counselling service to people who wish to access a warm, safe relationship in which to explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviour without fear of judgement. We have a clear professional approach whilst maintaining a down to earth and human style of working with real people with real issues.
I work with local businesses and agencies to offer employer assistance counselling as well as with privately referred clients who choose to access counselling for themselves.
We also teach all levels of counselling training to those who wish to either have a taste of what counselling is all about or pursue a career as a qualified counsellor. Chapters also delivers training to the NHS, Surestart centres and within other school and business environments.
We also offer certificated workshops for people who are interested in all different ways, please check our website for the most recent and up to date information regarding dates and topics if you are interested.
We have recently moved into our new business premises that have been created to give us the exact space that we need to offer our services in an 'ideal' environment - spacious, warm, light and airy classrooms, cosy counselling rooms, relaxation space and office facilities. All of our facilities are accessible for clients or students who use wheelchairs.
Training, Qualifications & Experience
I am a fully qualified teacher (C&G 7407 and Cert Ed) as well as a qualified counsellor (Dip.counselling). I am an accredited counsellor with the BACP - MBACP(Accred) and a registered independant counsellor on the UKRCP register. I have an up to date enhanced police criminal record check (CRB) and all relevant insurances.
I have taught counselling for 9 years and nearly 2 years ago left my job to set up my own business delivering high quality, private counselling and training at all levels. I teach and counsel predominantly using the Person-centred approach but am always guided by the needs of the clients and students, so can utilise skills from other approaches as and when appropriate.
