Pat Hoare

Profile

I have my own private practice in the centre of Exeter and offer counselling for individuals and couples. AS a BACP senior counsellor and supervisor I have over 30 years experience which enables me to draw on a variety of counselling models and skills.

Working with and facilitating groups is an area of particular interest to me, these include stress management, personal relationships and inner child workshops. Confidentiality and privacy are important and always respected in the safe supportive relationship which counselling provides. Brief intervention therapy and longer term therapeutic counselling are both available to meet individual needs and a 20 minute free consultation is offered to discuss this.

Further Information

As a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist I offer suggestion therapy or analysis depending on the clients’ need. Suggestion therapy is used for giving up smoking, weight loss, confidence building, driving tests etc. and analysis with deeper rooted issues such as phobias, fears, unresolved difficulties from the past.

I also work for a number of Employer Assisted Programmes who refer clients to me for short term counselling requiring Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.
