INTERIM COUNSELLOR
Person-Centred and Integrative Counsellor
(In-person and Online)
Student Member of the BACP

About me

I am an Interim Counsellor at HTC and am just about to qualify as a person centred counsellor after studying for four years. I became interested in counselling about 12 years ago when I started my own personal counselling journey after experiencing a bereavement. I found the whole process so supportive and healing and learned that counselling was not just beneficial to process my grief, but, to discover who I am and how I relate to people and the world. I learned how to make the changes I needed to become more at peace and a happier person. I decided that I wanted to help others reap the benefit of therapy so embarked on a career change in order to do this which is both rewarding and a constant strive to learn more to enhance my experience and skills.

Individual work

I am available for in-person/face to face clients and online. Working with all ages from 12 yrs and above.

Clients I work with

Adults (18+) and Young People from the age of 14+.

How I deliver therapy

My style of counselling is predominantly person centred (with some useful integrative therapy resources & techniques to offer support when appropriate). I hope that the clients that I work with find the therapy space a safe and private environment where we can explore challenges and thoughts together in order to find empowerment to make the necessary changes in life to feel happier and more fulfilled.

Therapy approaches

Person Centred – using various models according to your individual needs.

What I can help with

I have experience working with both young people from the age of 12 yrs and with adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and family issues, bereavement and low self-esteem.

Ethical practice

I am a student member of the BACP (British Association of Counsellors & Pyschotherapists). All members adhere to working within the BACP Ethical Framework in order to promote good practise and we endeavour to have the client’s best interest at the heart of our work together.

I also undertake clinical supervision of my work twice per month.

My therapist was brilliant at listening and supporting me through the counselling process. She was professional but warm and approachable and it felt very natural talking to her. I would certainly go back to see her again.

Counselling has really helped me through a difficult time after experiencing challenges. I feel the sessions have helped me get back to my old self and I am feeling much more positive about the future and my journey ahead.
~ Client
It is continuing to make a difference to me. I am still processing the ways in which Debbie supported me to begin to face things in my own way and dare to try and make decisions I needed to make, including facing my fears and not allowing them to overwhelm me.
~ Client
Emma worked so well with my son and helped him to cope so much better with a very difficult year. She listened and gave practical advice, which was just what he needed.

Exemplary - so supportive. Client centred, compassionate and attentive. Built a strong trusting relationship. Responsive to when/what I was struggling with and the emotional states I brought to sessions. I felt safe and secure very quickly.

The therapist was very professional and understanding to my situation and provided a safe space for me to express my feelings. I feel in a better place after having sessions.

As someone who had never had counselling sessions before I was sceptical if it was going to be beneficial to me, however after having some sessions with Kerry I was able to unload my thoughts which has greatly eased my situation and thoughts.

Really supportive, positive, helpful and it had a huge impact on my life. Thanks again to Klaudia, she was amazing.

Using the strategies you have taught me and understanding where my anger is coming from, has really helped me to become a better person to be around. I’m no longer angry all the time!

Your counselling sessions really helped to get me through a difficult period and I now feel in a much better place and able to think about moving on with my life.

Thank you so much again for all the help you gave me, it gave me the ability to figure out how to fix my issues by myself, which takes a big weight off my shoulders.
~ Client
I've shared things with you that i had never shared with anyone - testament to your unconditional acceptance of me.​
~ Client
There have been some hard times in the months since we ended counselling, but I remembered the things we discussed and I got through lots of different challenges thanks to you.

Thank you so much for all your hard work and support these past two years. It is so greatly appreciated.

Counselling has helped me control anger linked to anxiety, focus in self care and helped strengthen my relationship with my children.

I'm so glad I have you to come to as a supervisor. You help me trust in my processes and I trust your judgment of them! A great big thank you! You are a real steadfast influence on my practice.
