Counsellor for Children, Young People, and Adults.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website.
I am a qualified counsellor registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).
I specialise in supporting Children, Young People, and Adults with their physical and emotional well-being through both short-term counselling and long-term psychodynamic therapy.
My approach is respectful, supportive, and adaptable to your individual needs.
I offer face to face counselling sessions from my private practice located near Winchester, Hampshire.
I also offer online counselling sessions, home visits, or Walk and Talk Therapy within safe and nurturing environments.
There are various reasons why we choose to seek the support of a counsellor which include:
mental health conditions such as depression or anxiety,
physical health conditions like infertility or illnesses,
difficult life events such as loss or bereavement,
challenging emotional experiences like stress or unresolved emotional issues,
wanting to address unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviour patterns.
Additionally, people may seek counselling for personal growth and development, in order to gain a deeper understanding of themselves.
Counselling is a form of talking therapy that enables us explore how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours can have a negative impact both ourselves and our relationships with others.
Through the counselling supportive process we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and develop effective solutions to the challenges we may be facing.
Counselling supports us navigate and process past traumatic experiences, such as infertility, pregnancy loss, bereavement, illness, disability, and life transitions.
Counselling also offers support during times of anxiety, stress, depression, panic attacks, sadness, loneliness, low mood, or struggles with self-worth.
100% of clients reported they would have counselling with Shelley again and would recommend her to others because she was easy to talk to, listened to me, and my feelings and problems were understood.
