Julia Meeks

Currently booking afternoon/evening Monday to Thursday. 

Hello, I am a fully qualified counsellor for children, young people and adults and I work in the Suffolk / Cambridgeshire area. I have experience of working with children, adolescents and adults in a variety of agency settings and schools across a wide range of issues.

I am an integrative therapist coming from a person centred stance. This means that I work collaboratively with clients to explore their thoughts, emotions and behaviours in order to identify and work towards their desired goals and to support with new perspectives. I am also a Drawing and Talking therapist and can use this to allow clients the freedom of art to explore various areas of their lives that may be difficult to talk about directly. Together we can explore your world and your thoughts.

I offer a calm, compassionate space where you are welcome to bring any experiences, thoughts and feelings. I believe the therapeutic relationship is key to good therapy and that providing a listening space can be transformative for individuals.

With children and young people I generally work face to face because that is what they tend to prefer, however, I also work on the telephone and online which may mean less travel for you. I have a small counselling room where we can meet with plenty of free, easy parking on the edge of Newmarket. My room is also acessible for wheelchairs.

All sessions including the first are charged at the normal rate, but we will have contact prior to this via phone or email where we can discuss your issues. We can have a conversation about what you are hoping to achieve from therapy and you can ask any questions and decide if you would like to meet. When we meet for our first session I will undertake an assessment as part of that time.
