AnnMarie Campbell-Smith MBACP BA(Hons) Counsellor & Psychotherapist

About me

Counselling is a real opportunity to create change that can ultimately lead to a better way of living. It is a space for us to explore difficult issues together, where you are in control and where no judgement is made. Once underway, development starts to take place and can shape a more positive future.

I’m a qualified, BACP registered counsellor, working from home in a quiet setting just outside Basingstoke. My work with both adults and young people (aged 14+) involves a diverse range of issues including: anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, OCD, domestic and sexual abuse, General Anxiety Disorders, anger, loss and bereavement. Sometimes the complexities of life are too overwhelming and talking to a therapist can restore equilibrium, similar to pressing the ‘re-set’ button.

My approach to therapy centres on the needs of my clients. At times, simply being listened to with compassion and warmth is enough, yet more often, it will take interventions, the adoption of techniques and a more introspective view into the psyche to bring about change.

My work is informed by humanistic and existential theories which essentially means we will focus together on what’s happening in the present moment, acknowledging the impact of past events and explore ways of being for the future which are more conducive to healthy well-being.

An initial half hour consultation is free.

Counselling is face to face, in person or via Skype.
