About Access Counselling Lowestoft
I am a qualified Psychodynamic Counsellor situated in Lowestoft. I offer high quality affordable counselling within the local community. My practice is easily accessible to surrounding areas such as Gorleston, Great Yarmouth, Beccles, Bungay, Halesworth and Southwold.I offer open ended counselling and short term six session counselling.
The following pages will provide you with some information on the areas I may be able to help you with, as well as some information on my background and my approach to working with you.
I qualified as a counsellor 7 years ago and have nearly 800 hours clinical experience. I have a Certificate in Person Centred Counselling, a Certificate in Psychodynamic Counselling and a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling. I also have a Certificate for Psychodynamic Assessment & Time Limited Counselling.
I have experience working with adults and young adults aged from 16 upwards. I am a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists, which means I adhere to their Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy.
I have my own private practice but also work for a charitable organization within the local community. I see individuals referred by GPs and the NHS for solution focused therapy which last for six sessions. I also work on an open ended basis, which means counselling can continue for longer periods, i.e. months or years depending upon the person’s needs. I have experience working within an educational setting offering counselling to students aged 16 plus.
To enhance my theoretical knowledge and as part of my on-going commitment to my professional development, I attend regular CPD’s (continued professional development seminars) which keep me informed and up to date with current thinking. I am currently studying for an Advanced Certificate in Psychodynamic Theory & Clinical Practice.
I was also involved with the organisation of a Spring Conference 2011, for a local charitable organisation - Mentalisation and the Neurology of Attachment - Viviane Green and Professor Jeremy Holmes.
I am trained to work with the bereaved, having been a Volunteer Bereavement Support Worker for Cruse, a national charitable organization for two years.
Before training to become a counsellor, I worked in a residential home for the elderly. I held the position of a Senior Carer and was responsible for the wellbeing of the resident’s which included adults with mental health issues and I am also experienced to work with Autistic Spectrum Disorders.
