About me
A warm welcome to Portal Therapies. Thank you for taking time to read my profile. This and all of my work is guaranteed 100% free from any involvement of AI (artificial intelligence).
I am Julia, a non-judgemental, kind and inclusive person-centred counsellor and Reiki practitioner from a background including creativity, spirituality, caring and holistic therapies. I have personally witnessed the transformational power of therapy and experienced the difference it can make to share our unique story with a trusted, kind, safe and non-judgemental counsellor.
I am grateful to have worked alongside a variety of clients from diverse backgrounds with differing experiences and feel passionately about empowering others and witnessing their human journeys. I offer a safe, brave space for sessions which are offered remotely and in-person.
I look forward to meeting you and hearing about whatever brings you to counselling.
Please feel free to book a free 20-minute informal telephone call to see if and how we might work together.
Training, qualifications & experience
I offer lived experience and training in bereavement, loss and general counselling. My areas of special interest include diversity and disability, spirituality, health, life transitions, relationships, suicidal thoughts, self-esteem, abuse, dependency, caring, parenting, depression and anxiety. Ultimately, I work with individuals themselves and whatever may arise in the therapeutic process.
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.
