Evelyn Bailey

I am currently available to see clients all day Monday, and Wednesday evenings.

I use an integrative psychodynamic and humanistic counselling approach and aim to create a  warm, empathic and non-judgemental space for clients to talk about the issues they are facing. These can be related to current difficulties or those that have happened in the past. 

By providing a safe space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours you will begin to understand yourself and others better. Counselling can also help you to find ways to cope more effectively with challenging feelings and to process difficult life experiences.

I have over 30 years of experience as a qualified counsellor and have worked in various setting including: the NHS, secondary, further and higher education and the charitable sector. In addition to my private practice I also work part-time at the University of Cambridge as a student counsellor.

I am currently providing sessions over ZOOM. In addition to being a counsellor I am a qualified supervisor.

The initial session lasts an hour, providing space for you to talk in a confidential setting about what you would like help with and what you would like to gain from having some counselling. This session also gives you a chance to meet with me and to experience the way I work as a therapist.

I am a Senior Accredited and Registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy and have a Diploma in Supervision accredited by the Institute for Individual Psychology (ASIIP) with Cambridge Supervision Training (CST).

I have experience of working as a supervisor for the Student Counselling Service at the University of Cambridge and in the past have provided group supervision to student/trainee counsellors at City University, London. I have also supervised counsellors whilst working as a Team Leader for a children and young people's charity and provided group supervision to volunteer bereavement counsellors.  

I have experience of facilitating long-term Reflective Practice groups for nurses and would be keen to extend my supervisory practice in this area.

I aim to offer supervision which is encouraging, supportive and enabling, to individuals or groups of counsellors or other relevant professionals.

I am an Integrative therapist and work with supervisees across different therapeutic modalities. I offer an transparent and collaborative approach to supervision and recognise the importance of offering  a safe, empathic and non-judgemental space for therapists and supervisees (or other relevant professionals) to reflect on their work.
