Patricia Kent

I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor working within private practice with extensive experience in workplace counselling having spent the last ten years working with staff members within a local authority. I have an Advanced Diploma gained through the Relate Institute so also have experience working with couples.

My passion is helping and supporting clients to work towards a more fulfilling and rewarding life, and within my career I have worked with a range of issues, including communication difficulties, self-esteem, lack of confidence, lack of self-care, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, bereavement and loneliness. My approach is primarily person- centred, where the client is considered to be the expert of themselves, whilst gently supporting them in working towards their own solutions. I have also worked with individuals and couples using a range of skills including Brief Solution Focused Therapy and Anger Management. My approach is tailored towards each individual’s needs.
