About me
My name is Theresa and I own Yeates Tree of Life Counselling Ltd. I am a pluralistic counsellor who focuses on a person centred approach and individual clients' needs. I can use different tools and strategies to suit your individual goals, understanding your perception and point of view. I can use different approaches from cognitive behaviour therapy, psychodynamic techniques and a humanistic way of thinking. I come from a childcare background and have worked with children for 28 years with training in play-based learning and child development. I provide a supportive non-judgemental environment for children, young people and adults. I believe in collaboration, working together to enable you or your child to access skills to meet your own therapy goals. I am trained to listen to you and find ways to support you in understanding your own thoughts, behaviours and emotions. Making the decision to have counselling means choosing yourself. I will work alongside you to focus on what is right for you.
I offer short and long-term therapy face-to-face or online depending on each individual's needs. I offer a free initial phone call where we can discuss availability and answer questions.
