Julie Allan

I am an experienced counsellor and supervisor. I work both face to face in comfy office space and online via zoom or telephone. Am passionate about offering you a warm non judgemental, safe space to explore your feelings and difficulties. To think and talk about anything which may feel confusing, uncomfortable, painful, traumatic or distressing . I understand that it may not always be easy to talk about what is happening for you at first, but I will seek to support  and help you work through it and alleviate your distress. Our sessions become a shared exploration of what is troubling you, helping you to unravel your difficulties and seeking ways to move forward. To gain greater understanding of yourself and what is happening and find solutions that work for you. Helping you get in touch with your inner resources and strength, enabling you to manage life more effectively, feel more in control and facilitate your personal growth and healing. You do not necessarily need to be at crisis point to benefit from counselling, you may simply be feeling more anxious, tearful, stressed or angry and wondering how to get back to what feels more normal for you. You may be at a crossroads in life and need help to consider which path to choose.  I want to help you to find ways to live a fuller life and reach your unique potential. I also have a passion for supporting students whilst in training. Whatever the case, I work with you as an individual  on your goals, at your pace, for your personal benefit.

I offer open ended and long term work, and can on occasions provide single session therapy. I work with individual adults, both face to face and online video conferencing via zoom to people based in the UK.

I am an experience and qualified supervisor.

The quality of our relationship is very important to me,  so you can be very open about your work. For this reason I offer a free getting to know you session, an opportunity to talk about our hopes and expectations .

Discounts available for student counsellors. I enjoy working with students and watching your growth. I seek to offer a safe space for you to reflect, learn, feel held and observing that  your clients are receiving safe practice.
