Jeanette Al-Hariri

Are you struggling with life at the moment? Perhaps not knowing why you feel the way you do, only a sense that something isn't sitting well. I can offer you a confidential, private and safe space to explore your feelings and will support you in overcoming issues which feel challenging, and perhaps hopeless.  I am very aware that taking this first step can feel daunting so please be assured that we will work at your pace and that I will remain alongside you.

Over the years I have worked a great deal with loss, anxiety, panic disorder and intrusive thoughts. Thoughts can trigger powerful emotions which can leave us feeling powerless and isolated, and perhaps no longer trusting in ourselves and our abilities. 

A Person-Centred approach underpins my practice, but I also work with CBT, Gestalt Therapy and Mindfulness, therefore, the counselling that we embark upon will be tailored to your needs and which we can review together.

Please feel free to contact me either by telephone, email or text. If I cannot take your call then please leave a message and I will endeavour to respond to you within 24 hours. I am happy to have an informal chat about your counselling needs and I also offer a 30 minute free initial consultation. I offer this confidential counselling service from a quiet and private counselling room with free off road parking.

My practice is at my home which is situated in Normanton on Soar, a small village about 4 miles outside of Loughborough.  Therapy sessions take place in a designated room so feels very private and relaxed.

This is a safe space where you can come and talk about the things that matter to you.  My aim is to build a relationship with my clients, one which is open and honest and free from any judgement.    

I offer a 30 minute initial consultation free of charge as I feel it is important that you feel comfortable with me and the environment I offer.

An assessment is completed to identify the areas that you wish to focus on and how counselling can help support you at this time.

I have flexible availability Monday to Thursday.  I offer concessionary rates for trainee counsellors.

My core psychotherapy training is in Person-Centred and I feel this approach defines me as it fits best with my experiences and outlook on life. However, I also integrate CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), Gestalt and Mindfulness interventions when appropriate. I believe ‘relationship’ lies at the heart of change and growth which takes place in counselling and I endeavour to provide a safe, supportive and non-judgmental environment to facilitate authenticity and open exploration.

I find that my supervisory style mirrors my therapeutic approach and I strive to make the supervisory relationship collaborative at its core. In supervision I want supervisees to feel comfortable to participate in self-exploration, to bring the challenges and successes in their client work, as well as exploring the dynamics of the supervisory relationship.

I don’t have a one shoe fits all policy, as we are all individuals, so I will vary my style depending on the needs and expectations of the supervisee. My aim is to strengthen self-awareness and inspire the supervisee to remain motivated and engaged in the process.

My house and practice is situated in Normanton on Soar which is a small village about 4 miles outside of Loughborough.  I have a quiet and private consulting room with free off road parking.

I invite you to come for a free and informal chat about your supervision requirements.  This session will last for approximately 1 hour.
