Finn Dowdell

I have trained as an Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist. This enables me to draw upon different modalities in response to each individuals needs. I work from a feminist framework and have a relational, person-centered approach. 

I offer support for a wide range of issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, psychosexual issues, loss and bereavement, shame, gender issues, panic attacks, addiction, childhood neglect, pain, creative blocks, relationship difficulties, OCD, ADHD, Autism, PMDD. 

​I have worked for The Minster Centre's Low Cost Therapy Service and as a counsellor with an LGBTQ+ counselling service.

I follow and adhere to the BACP Ethical Practice.

I aim to provide a space in which you can process and better understand your emotions, experiences and relational patterns in a safe and non-judgemental environment. Through being with your feelings and talking through the difficulties you are facing you can build on and develop deeper self awareness, opening up room to grow, gain confidence and creatively explore and pursue the choices, possibilities, hopes and connections in your life. This is a place to feel, explore, play and connect with yourself, grow you curiosity, deepen relationships with others and to wonder.

I offer a free initial 30 minute consultation. This is a chance for us to meet and discuss what has brought you to therapy and a little about your personal history.

I will also explain a bit about how I work and what you can expect from our work together. 

There will be space for you to ask any questions that you might have. It is a chance for us to get to know one another a little and to think about the best plan for your therapy going forward.
