Maxine Braddon

I have availability for remote counselling sessions over Zoom and telephone. I have limited availability for face-to-face counselling in Stoke-on-Trent. Please contact me to discuss what you are looking for and I will try to accommodate you. 

As your counsellor, I aim to provide a safe, warm, genuine, nurturing, and confidential space for you to explore your feelings and emotions at a pace that is comfortable for you. I am keen for you to get exactly what you need from therapy and achieve the most out of every session.

Together we will explore your background to see if any thoughts or behaviour patterns have led you to where you are today. I work integratively which means we will work collaboratively to discover the best way to help you process your issues and move forward with your life. You choose what is best for you.

I am client led and the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of my practice. I provide short-term and long-term therapy depending on your need.

Your counselling will take place in a confidential, and safe space. I will listen with sensitivity and empathy - without judgment. In the therapy space, your thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and in confidence.

I am an experienced counsellor who has worked across private, charitable, educational, and voluntary sectors with adults and young people. Some of the issues I have helped my clients with include - bereavement, loss, anxiety, trauma, domestic abuse, family dynamics, relationships, resilience, retirement, redundancy, self-esteem, stress, and work-life balance.

Initial screening assessments cost £20 - they take place by telephone and are an opportunity for us to see if we are the right fit to work together - there is no obligation to book any further sessions.
