About me

Please note:  To avoid any confusion I would like to point out that there is another person named Sally Stacey who is a spiritual medium.  

If you are facing an issue or situation in your life which is challenging then I offer a non judgemental, supportive and confidential environment in which we can explore whatever aspects of your life you may wish to better understand or change.

We can work together to help you take control of your life, resolve your difficulties and increase your sense of wellbeing. 

My advanced training ensures that if you are struggling with anxiety, relationship or emotional difficulties or have other concerns that weigh on your mental health, we will be able to work together to find the right solution for you.

My approach is to work in collaboration with you, at your pace. My aim is to offer you a place to bring the difficulties that are stopping you from fulfilling your potential or getting in the way of a happier life.

Our relationship of trust and confidentiality will give you the opportunity to explore the issues that you may not be able to share with friends and family. Clients have said that they welcome my warmth, my openness and my empathetic approach. 

I have experience of working with depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, grief, abuse, anger issues, social anxiety, personality disorders, PTSD and trauma related difficulties. 

My integrative training helps me to pull on a number of different approaches to offer support with your unique situation. "Psychotherapeutic counsellors view human suffering holistically. They look at someone’s mind, body and soul in the context of their circumstances and where they are in their life." (UKCP)

I offer one to one counselling in my rural home midway between Malton and Pocklington in the beautiful Wold's countryside.  Clients have found the peaceful and private setting a really therapeutic environment.  Some clients like to walk while talking and as the Chalkland Way runs alongside my house we are able to spend the hour out in these quiet, natural surroundings. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I have an Advanced Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and am UKCP registered.  My integrative training allows me to pull on a wide range of knowledge to bring new insights and actionable results.  I have additional training and interest in trauma  - its causes and how it can effect our lives, our relationships, our bodies. 

I am currently studying for a Diploma in Supervision and am available to see counselling or psychotherapy supervisees. 

My career began in the corporate world of training and development, I went on to run my own very demanding business and have more recently worked for both the NHS and Social Services. I have a depth of understanding of the pressures that our busy working and relational lives can put on our emotional health.

I have been a Specialist Mentor for students at York University who have Autism or/and Mental Health difficulties and have completed the National Autistic Society Essential Training.

I have worked at both York Women's Counselling and KYRA Women's Project in York providing both long and short term counselling for women with a range of needs. I am currently studying for a Diploma in Supervision and am open to taking supervisees while I am in training. 

I have raised a large family and have a wealth of experience of the pressures and challenges (and joys) of parenting and family relationships and can offer empathetic support with these issues.

Whatever the problem, I am confident that my rigorous professional training and extensive life and work experience will enable me to help you to move through to a more productive and positive place.

Additional information

After our initial telephone or email contact I suggest that we meet to discuss your needs further.  In therapy the relationship between client and counsellor is the most important factor.  Finding a fit that is comfortable and trusting is key.


The number of sessions you need is flexible and fluid.  Some issues can be resolved quickly while others may need more time to work through. My approach is to always work in partnership with you.


My fees are £60.00 per hour. ​ If coming to therapy on a weekly basis isn't affordable then it is possible to come two or three times a month.

Further information

I work from both my home office near Thixendale (10 miles from both Pocklington and Malton).

Please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss your needs.  I try to be flexible to work around client's availability whenever possible. 

I offer both online and face to face therapy and for those who feel more comfortable meeting outdoors we can walk and talk during the session. My home has the Chalkland Way on the doorstep which is a perfect peaceful and private setting.
