Person-Centred therapeutic counsellor, Natural Mindfulness Guide ​& Outdoor Therapist.

Blast Technique Practitioner (EMDR)

I’m Alison and I am a Person-Centered qualified professional counsellor. So what does that mean? Well, it means I believe we all have a deep innate ability to find our own answers. The therapeutic relationship offers the opportunity to work together collaboratively to help you better understand yourself. It also increases your awareness of yourself, the world around you, and why you feel the way you do. 

I will not give you advice and I will not tell you what to do. I will ask questions as I accompany you on your path to understanding your world and how you fit in it. It is important to acknowledge that I work with you to explore this at your pace.

I work predominantly outdoors, incorporating the healing power of nature. As well as, the environment around us in the therapeutic relationship. I also work indoors in my welcoming office here at The Therapy Venue in Stoney Stanton. 

The focus of my work is predominantly on bereavement, loss, anxiety and self-concept (how you view yourself & the relationship you have with yourself). 

I want to work with you to support you to overcome life’s challenges in a safe, non-judgmental and accepting space. Life can be full of uncertainty and throw challenges at us. Which can, at times, leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed or alone. I am here to help you make sense of what is happening to you, what you are feeling and the emotions you are experiencing to help you gain a greater understanding of yourself.

As a qualified and professional counsellor acknowledging what is or has happened for you and the impact on you is at the forefront. So I recognise your individuality and work with you to understand you. Along with your situation and what has brought you here. Whatever your reason for considering working together, this could be the first step to moving towards where you want to be. As well as, increasing self-compassion and improving your wellbeing.
