About me
Hi, I'm Joe. I'm a warm, empathic counsellor, working with anxiety, 'stuckness', fear, anger, sadness, grief, depression, relationship troubles, and more - whatever it is, I can work with you to help you help yourself.
Training, qualifications & experience
My primary training is in Transactional Analysis, and I hold a Level 6 diploma in Counselling.
I'm a member of BACP, and of UKATA.
I'm also an MNCS Accredited Registrant.
I've been counselling since 2019, and have much experience working with the bereaved and with those in caring situations.
