About me
Hi, I'm Abby.
If you're feeling unsure where to start on your counselling journey, you've come to the right pIace. It’s fair to say that one size does not fit all in many aspects of our lives, and it’s the same in my approach to counselling - different people need different things at different times in their lives.
As a pluralistic Counsellor, I use different counselling styles from Psychodynamic Therapy, Person-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. This provides a truly unique experience, helping you get to the root of your concerns in a way that best supports and empowers you to accomplish your goals.
Sessions
I understand the challenges some people may face, both physically and emotionally - I offer support in a way that's convenient for you.
Online session-these can be done through zoom or Microsoft Teams, and face Time. online counselling gives you a chance to engage in the comfort of your own home, this can be helpful if you work shifts or find it difficult to commit to going to regular face to face sessions.
Home Sessions-Home sessions give you the same benefits of face to face sessions in the comfort and safety of your own home, theses sessions can be helpful if you are unable to access the community due to illness or disability, or simply find getting out difficult.
Face to Face sessions-Our accessible Clinic in leafy Summerseat Bury, is the perfect place to relax and begin your counselling journey. this private space is a great way to build a therapeutic relationship, in face to face session we can work through activities together to allow you to get the best outcomes.
which ever type of session works best for you I provide a safe, non-judgmental and confidential space that works for you.
Working together to establish your therapy needs, your sessions will be reviewed every 6 weeks, giving you a chance to reflect on progress and collaborate on future goals.
Whether you’re recovering from a trauma, dealing with relationship issues or seeking support for mental health concerns, such as anxiety or depression, take the first step towards holistic wellness by scheduling a counselling session today.
In accordance with the NCPS's guidelines for on-going professional development, I have regular supervision.
