More about Annette

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I offer long or short-term therapy, rooted in person-centred training. My work is based on my therapeutic relationship with you; using empathy and developing rapport enables you to work through your issue at your own pace.

Loving and appreciating yourself is key to being able to move on; I can help you find inner peace and your own life path. Your mind is your most precious and powerful commodity and I can tap in to that in order to help heal you.

Whatever the problem, having a trusting, caring relationship will help. I agree with the Dalai Lama when he says, ".... there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion." I feel that that offering kindness and compassion unconditionally is what helps form the relationship and move it forward.

Trying to find someone who can help with whatever problem or issue you have may seem daunting. We all need help at different times of our lives for a variety of reasons and sometimes talking to our loved ones or friends is either not possible or feels uncomfortable. Working with someone outside of your normal circle enables you to explore what is going on for you in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

I work across a wide range of issues, and specialise in, but am not limited to:

Anxiety, Stress and Panic attacks

Depression

Anger Management

Low Self-Esteem

Self-Confidence and Public Speaking

Phobias

Trauma

Bereavement

Relationship and Family difficulties

Self-harm

I am a Person-Centred Therapeutic Counsellor, an NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) Master Practitioner and Coach and a Clinical Hypnotherapist.

I have also trained in Mindfulness and offer Mindful Relaxation Sessions.

I have worked within educational establishments for more than 30 years and have experience of working with young people and adults.

All of my training, knowledge and experience means that I have access to a wide variety of tools; this means that I can work with you in the best way possible for you. Being your therapist means that I am there to support you through your journey of transformation, whatever your needs.

Please contact me now for an Initial Consultation where we can speak about why you have approached me, what you hope to achieve in therapy and what your long-term goals are. It is also an opportunity to find out whether we will feel comfortable working together.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
