Elaine Bramhall - Therapeutic Counsellor MNCS(Snr Accred)
About me
I offer a quiet space to explore the issues that are troubling you at a pace that suits you. I will work with you to identify and tackle the source of unrest or distress and together we will find ways to navigate through that distress and bring more control and personal power to your life.
So why choose counselling? It is now widely recognised that 'talking therapies' are an effective and helpful way to deal with many of the issues which trouble us throughout our life. Life can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and out of control leaving a sense of powerlessness, which left, can lead to more serious ill health such as clinical depression for example.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have been in practice as a Person Centred therapist since 2006. My practice has evolved over that time however my core belief remains - we are all striving to grow, to feel well, and fulfilled. Counselling is a recognised approach to looking through our life events or perhaps repeated unhelpful patterns and uncovering the sticking points or the reasons for unhappiness.
My experience as a therapist has covered all areas of life from birth to death and all the challenges, life brings, in between. I have worked with adults experiencing many aspects of distress as well as struggles adjusting to changes in life due to ageing, relationship difficulties and breakdown, trauma, loss and bereavement, stress and anxiety as well as adjusting to living with a life limiting diagnosis.
I am a member of the National Counselling Society MNCS (Snr Accred) and the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy MBACP.
