About me
The Coronavirus Outbreak (COVID-19)
The widening pandemic has hit globally impacting nations hard. The direction of life has taken an unexpected change causing a lot of individuals to experience high levels of anxiety, many of whom continue to worry about dealing with the uncertainties that may lay ahead. This truly is a very challenging time.
With this in mind my focus is on your present need to be able to relationally connect with someone who can offer attentive empathetic support when face to face contact proves difficult.
Therefore as a result of the need to self isolate, I offer my support to you through telephone, Skype, Zoom and video call through WhatsApp at a reduced fee of £30 per therapeutic hour.
Hello my name is Jamie and I work as a qualified counsellor offering face to face support in the Kirklees and Calderdale surrounding areas. I provide a confidential counselling practice in a calm and safe environment and offer appointments in the morning, afternoon, evening and weekend to suit your commitments.
Having trained and worked as a qualified counsellor over a number of years, I have experience and special interests in a range of areas. My experience is varied and includes working with adults, young people and children in a number of settings to help improve both mental and emotional wellbeing. Some of the key areas I work with are, for example, anger, anxiety, confidence issues, low self-esteem, depression, sleep disturbance, relationship problems (including parental/marital), bullying, loneliness, domestic violence, adult and child trauma, rape, which are just a few.
In addition, I have worked as a counsellor in various environments in West Yorkshires and as a result have developed special interests and experience of working within, for example, the gay and lesbian sexual orientation/gender sector, drug and alcohol dependency, persons living with and those that are affected by HIV and mental health issues.
