About me and my therapy practice
Hello my name is Gillian, a warm welcome to you and thank you for taking a moment to read my profile.
I work as a Person Centred therapist which is based on the view that everyone has the capacity and desire for personal growth and change, given the right conditions.
Rather than the counsellor being seen as the expert and directing the therapy, I offer a space for you to explore your feelings and develop in your own way at your own pace. Enabling you to live in a more fullfilling manner.
Practice description
At times through our own individual experiences of life, there can be a multitude of things, which come all at once. This can be overwhelming, confusing with perhaps feelings of it all seeming too much.
Listening to and exploring our emotions is a way of learning to understand our inner self. By doing so, this can create a natural healing process, forming and promoting changes from within.
I offer a confidential, warm open space to explore your feelings and thoughts, working alongside each individual creating a therapeutic relationship, based on empathy and acceptance in a non-judgemental environment.
