Natalie Kendall

I offer online, telephone and video counselling sessions to adults and young people all over the UK. I have a warm and gentle approach. I have supported and helped people struggling with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, relationship issues, work-related stress, low confidence, and low self-esteem.

Counselling offers a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental relationship where you can share whatever is troubling you. In relationships, we may feel that we are not being genuinely listened to or understood. We may not want to talk to friends and family about how we are feeling and our struggles, and we would prefer to speak to someone independent. It can feel easier to talk to someone who isn’t connected to us personally. This is when counselling can be supportive and helpful.

In the sessions, we can work towards your goals which might be reducing your anxiety, feeling more positive about yourself and the future, getting to know yourself and your situation better, feeling more confident in making decisions and changes in your life, gaining new perspectives, learning new ways of managing through difficult times, or maybe you need a place where you can offload or tell your story, I will listen to you compassionately and support you in moving forward. 

Before setting up in private practice, I worked hard to understand counselling and gained years of experience working with people from all walks of life. I have worked at the Samaritans, cruse bereavement a private agency, Better Help and for the EAP service as a counsellor.

Online or telephone counselling has become a very popular option as you can fit your counselling sessions around you. There are no travelling costs or times to take into consideration. You can have the sessions in your own home with your home comforts around you. Online and telephone counselling is just effective as face-to-face.

I understand that you may feel nervous about counselling, and I want to assure you that we will go at your pace. You can ask me any questions you need to, and I will support you through your counselling journey. My focus will be putting you and your needs at the centre of our work together.

The initial free session is a chance for you to see if you feel comfortable talking to me and for me to hear more about what brings you to counselling, and for us both to have an idea if I am the right fit to be your counsellor.

The initial session is around 20 min and is free of charge.
