Diane Elizabeth Blake MBACP & UKCP (Accred).

About me

I offer a professional, confidential and approachable service from my Therapy room in the centre of Beverley and also in Watton near Driffield. I have many years' experience working with people from all walks of life and with many of life's difficulties. I began working as a Counsellor in 2003.  As well as in Private Practice, I work with EAP for companies and large organisations and also for the NHS in the IAPT service.

I work Short, Medium and Long Term with issues including: Anxiety, Depression, Bereavement and other losses, Abuse of all kinds, Childhood Trauma and issues from childhood family, Spirituality, Generalised Anxiety Disorder,  Relationship Issues, Separation and Divorce, Family Issues, Stress, Difficulties at Work, Low Self Confidence and Self Esteem.

I am Accredited by both the B.A.C.P. and the U.K.C.P. and work within their ethical guidelines.  I am committed to my own personal development, undertaking regular continued professional development courses and therapy.  Like all ethical therapists, I have the support of a professional Supervisor.  These things ensure that I can provide the very best service and experience of therapy for you.

If this is your first Counselling experience, it is natural if you feel a little anxious about contacting a Therapist. You will find that I provide a safe, boundaried space to explore your personal thoughts and feelings in a respectful, non-judgemental and insightful way, often providing a reparative experience while helping you to find your own way with the difficulties you bring.

So call now to make an appointment.  I will endeavour to answer any questions/concerns you may have.  I look forward to hearing from you.

I also offer Clinical Supervision to Counsellors/Psychotherapists. (See Supervision section).
