Debra Fletcher Counsellor BA (Hons) MBACP
Email meAbout me
Hello welcome and thank you for looking. I understand how talking and being honest in the company of someone unfamiliar can be daunting, and to begin with, the prospect of counseling can feel overwhelming.
I am an experienced and qualified Counsellor based in Southsea registered with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP)
I offer both long and short term confidential therapy for adults and adolescents. I have experience in areas such as redundancy, life transitions, relationship issues, divorce and separation, family conflict, building confidence, loss and anxiety.
I work from a person centred approach and believe as individuals all our experiences are unique, and we all process the potential to make changes in our lives.
Working together our therapeutic relationship is confidential, non judgemental and takes place in a safe environment where you can begin to explore and share what is troubling you whilst developing a deeper understanding and acceptance in the process.
Counselling as a process may not always seem easy, it can feel like a roller coaster of emotions with you being it’s passenger. As your counsellor, I will there alongside you through the challenges you are experiencing, and facing in life, and together we will face what is troubling you at the pace you decide.
