Davinia Eccleston

My approach is gentle and patient, giving you space to explore your issues allowing you to feel supported. I work at your pace, in your time, by your clock.

Being an integrative counsellor/therapist, I use a mix of different approaches tailored to your individual needs. All the work we do is based on us forming a good relationship, this is crucial if we are to work together effectively.

I offer a respectful safe place, where you can be without fear of judgement so we can explore the things in your life that need support. Some people find it helpful to talk through early experiences; which may still impact their lives emotionally. Others find it more helpful to focus on solutions and practical ways to bring about change. Together we can find a way that works best for you. This could mean working for a short-term or long-term.

I provide a confidential service based on trust and honesty, with weekly counselling avablibe.

Taking the first step to contact me might be hard, I offer a free initial telephone consultation. This gives us both the opportunity to decide how we might work together.

I believe counselling should be accessible for everyone and offer concessions where I can, particularly for morning/afternoon sessions.

In the first session, we use this time to meet each other and discuss some of the reasons that bring you to therapy and what you want to gain from counselling.

Our first sessio will also be an opportunity to make sure you feel comfortable, and that we're a good fit.

At the end, I invite you to share how you found the session and any thoughts or things you are taking from it.

This is also an opportunity to ask questions and decide if you want to continue. You are under no obligation to make a decision straight away but it can be helpful to reflect on your experience.
