Profile

Hello, my name is Cherril Wilson and I am experienced in helping people tell their story. I have worked with individuals and couples since 2000.

I will work alongside you to explore fears, concerns, options and possible changes that you might like to make. The relationship that develops between us plays an important part in resolving difficult feelings from the past and/or in the present. My aim is that you will feel comfortable, trusting and supported. Change can be difficult but counselling can lead to increased self-confidence and self-insight. Understanding our story and valuing and accepting who we are can help with moving forward and so fulfilling our potential through constructive ways of living.

I offer short and long-term counselling according to what most suits your needs. Our time together will depend on the difficulties you are experiencing and what you want from counselling. The first session is an opportunity to explore what you would like from counselling and some of the changes you might like to make and to decide if you would like to work with me.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

My professional life has been about working supportively with people to make a difference. Prior to training as a counsellor I was a teacher, manager and support worker.

I have a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling (2000) and an MA in Counselling (2003). My MA research included finding out more about people's perceptions of help and what made a mutually supportive relationship healing. In terms of couple counselling I am also Relate trained.

I gained a Postgraduate Certificate in Counselling Supervision (2007) and learned to fully value the need for reflective space to aid thinking.

I have remained in continuous training and in 2009, I trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing) to enable me to more effectively work with individuals who present with past traumas that have become "stuck" in some way. I have used my understanding gained from an Attachment Interest Group (2009) to work more closely with issues of trust and mutual relating within relationships.
