About me
Hello, my name is Jo, and I would like to welcome you to Calm Space Counselling. I am passionate to help people feel the best they possibly can, both about and within themselves.
As soulful human beings, our past, present and future relationships, with others and with ourselves, are impacted by people, places, objects and events. Sometimes these are beautiful and inspiring, but often they can be difficult and traumatic.
You may feel as if your life is on a loop, repeating old habits and behaviours in different situations. With care and empathy I will support you as we explore these feelings and behaviours together.
I work in person from a private, dedicated counselling space in the heart of the Peak District. Online sessions are also available. You can contact me by email or on 07597 716943 for an initial discussion.
I really look forward to meeting you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified psychodynamic counsellor, and work with individuals to help them in their progression towards a feeling of wholeness. This might come from working through negative patterns of behaviour, conscious and unconscious thoughts and feelings that impact one or more areas of their life.
In a safe and private environment, you will have the opportunity to explore your innermost thoughts, feelings, and behaviours without judgement. Sometimes these thoughts may come from traumatic events that have happened at a particular stage in your life that you are very aware of, in other cases, they can be more unconscious and triggered unexpectedly. I will work with empathy, warmth, and care to help you understand how these feelings might be causing you pain or discomfort, which in turn, can lead to lasting change.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
