HOW WE CAN HELP

My Services Available To You

My intention is to support you through your tricky life events causing you some psychological distress, discomfort or confusion. To support you to alleviate your suffering by facilitating your self discoveries and growth

1-1 Adult Therapy Sessions

I have available appointments for online therapy throughout the week.

Currently I am able to offer you online therapy appointments on Monday’s, Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s and Friday’s. I have attained the required 80 hours training in online and telephone counselling to work competently and ethically in this area of support services. 

Compassion Focused Therapy

During the therapy process we explore your current understanding of what compassion means to you and how you offer it to yourself and others. Together we work on developing three ways of experiencing compassion and how different versions of you impact on your communication and interactions.

Student Mentorship

It can be a short-term or long-term process of support depending on your individual requirements. An action plan will be tailored to meet each students’ individual needs.

Walk & Talk Therapy

Green space is good for your mind and body, scientific studies have proven light, physical movement and stimulus from nature bring even more benefits to our wellbeing.

Starts back in April when lockdown has been lifted. Appointments are available to book now.

TESTIMONIALS

Kind words, from kind people

“Maggie has helped me to retrain my brain to discount the negative inputs that were constantly taking over my anxiety by using it to my advantage, rather than feeling trapped by it. Maggie would always keep things at my pace however, would push when she thought it was necessary, this is something that was useful to allow me to grow to my potential.”
