Suzanne Ellis (MBACP) Registered Counsellor.

About me

Anxiety, stress, sadness, lack of confidence and relationship difficulties are just some of the issues that can hinder you from living your life as you want to. Whether you are struggling with a particular problem, concern or situation in your life, talking with a counsellor can help you to understand your feelings, develop your sense of self-worth and enable you to live a more fulfilled life. Counselling can enable you to cope with life events, to manage difficult feelings and help you with feelings of despair and hopelessness, panic, worry or feeling like you can’t cope when things go wrong.

As a non-directive person-centred therapist, I can offer you a caring, non-judgemental, confidential space where you can begin to explore and process your experiences, worries and feelings at your own depth and pace. I offer you an empathic therapeutic relationship built on trust, understanding, authenticity and acceptance. Our work together will be led by you and your needs. Also the amount of sessions you have with me is very much dependent on you and is not limited to just a few sessions.

I’ve been a qualified person-centred counsellor for 12 years, as well as my private practice I also work at a children’s hospice and have been working there for 9 years. I have a vast experience of working 1-1 with adults, children and young people. I also have experience of telephone counselling, if you would prefer telephone counselling rather than face to face.

I have a room in my home that I use as my counselling room, which is a confidential and safe space for counselling sessions to take place in. My home is in the suburbs of Oswestry, but is within easy walking distance of Oswestry town centre, and there is parking space on my drive.

I can offer you a professional, caring, respectful environment where you can feel safe to talk about personal experiences and feelings. I realise that considering counselling is a big decision, especially if you have not had counselling before. This may initially feel uncomfortable, but it will be a huge step for you towards having a greater understanding and awareness of yourself, your feelings, your life and your experiences.

I am happy to offer you a ‘free’ initial half hour assessment session, if you feel this might be helpful. This initial session will be a time for us to meet and for you see if you would feel comfortable to work with me. Also this could be a time for you to ask me any questions and find out if counselling could help you.

If you have any queries about counselling or how counselling can help you or you have any questions about my counselling service please ring me on 07530726687 or email me. I would be happy to answer any questions. If you feel that you would like to meet me, then we can arrange a time that will be convenient for you. I look forward to hearing from
