I am a caring and compassionate counsellor offering therapeutic counselling for a range of concerns, working in a humanistic way.

I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds, embracing and respecting individual differences such as race, ethnicity, culture, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and disability. My primary goal is to establish a professional and warm atmosphere where you can freely express your thoughts, feelings and emotions, knowing that your confidentiality is respected and that you feel safe.

Qualifications
CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
Sometimes when we are feeling unsure, lonely or down, talking about what is bothering us is the first and most powerful step in starting to ease the weight of what we are carrying each day. Whether you want to explore your thoughts and feelings, want something to change in your life or don't know what you want other than to stop feeling the way you do - please get in touch.
All too often we judge ourselves harshly, berate ourselves for our decisions or life choices and what we really need is kindness, compassion and understanding. I offer a safe, non-judgemental and respectful approach to helping people to explore what is bothering them.
I am experienced in working with a wide range of issues including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, stress, loss/grief, low self-esteem, relationship issues and life transitions. I believe in the innate power of individuals to create profound and lasting change in their lives and the most powerful tool I can provide as a therapist is an authentic and trusted relationship to facilitate this.
I work with adults and couples, 50-minute sessions cost £65 for individuals and £75 for couples. Sessions can be face to face, by phone or video call to best suit you.
Qualifications:
Certificate in Couples Counselling

It’s normal to sometimes feel overwhelmed, isolated or simply lose hope during stressful situations and when this happens it helps talk to someone who is empathic and validating of your experiences, helping you to find your way back to ‘you.’
I'm an adult and children and young person’s counsellor offering a kind and trusting relationship to help explore issues such as depression, anxiety, dealing with stress, family issues, grief or loss, relationships, over-thinking, and low self-esteem, to name a few.
About Me:
My core counsellor training is ‘humanistic’ which means our sessions are tailored to your needs and focused on exploring how you feel in the world. Through being alongside you, offering a relationship of trust, it’s my hope you feel able to explore situations honestly, without fear of judgement.
Before training as a counsellor, I trained as a reflexologist, aromatherapist and Reiki practitioner. This background along with a diploma in anatomy and physiology means I’m interested in you as whole person - mind, body, and spirit and what informs you as a person.
I recognise the importance of grounding and a sense of safety and connection to promoting growth hence I may use energy techniques and guided visualisations to help you find an internal sense of safety. I often notice when clients work through layers of emotions, they become more clearly attuned to their own intuition, gaining emotional freedom through inner strength.
I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and work in accordance with their ethical framework and standards.
It takes courage to start seeing a counsellor and share difficult feelings, but I've seen how much growth and healing can occur through taking this step. I see clients on Tuesday from 11am to 7pm.
I work with adults and children or young people and offer 50-minute sessions for £65.00 and sessions can be face to face, or online.
Qualifications:
Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling
NCS Level 5 Diploma in Counselling Children and Young people
CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
Enhanced DBS Certificate
Certificate in online counselling
Certificate in Mental Health First Aid for children and young people

Integrative Counsellor
I am aware finding the right counsellor whether changing to a new one or your first one can be a dauting experience, therefore it is important that you choose the right counsellor to suit your needs. This is your time to talk about what you; your, thoughts, fears, dilemmas, and everyday events, which could be affecting you, be comfortable with the uncomfortable. Being vulnerable can feel confusing and overwhelming at times and I can offer you a safe and confidential space to work through the issues you are finding difficult. I work as an integrative counsellor; working in person centred which is a humanistic approach that deals with the ways in which an individual perceives themselves consciously, rather than how a counsellor can interpret their unconscious thoughts or ideas, in other words, you are the expert of yourself. I work to understand your experiences from your perspective, while being open and genuine without judgement. Supporting and helping you to reconnect with your inner values and sense of self-worth. I also work within a Gestalt approach which centres on increasing a person’s awareness, freedom, and self-direction, focusing on the present moment rather than past experiences. I also work with Transactional Analysis therapy allowing a client to explore an individual’s personality and how this has been shaped by experiences, particularly those from childhood, using various models, techniques, and tools.
Our work together, and the techniques we use will be shaped by you. Working with me, you can expect to feel respected, heard and supported. We will move at a pace you feel comfortable with. From our sessions, you may begin to experience a stronger sense of yourself, your resilience, and your own inner-power.
I look forward to meeting you and working alongside you

Counselling is my vocation and professional passion.
I work as an integrative counsellor allowing me to use different approaches to build a working alliance with my client that is unique to them and their needs. I have a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and I am an ACTO accredited telephone and online therapist. I am continually working on my personal development and training to improve my expertise.
A bit about you
Seeking counselling, especially for the first time can be daunting, and for good reason. Counselling is not a quick fix, it's about wanting to make positive changes in your life which takes time and investment in the process. My job is to be your companion in this exploration, a companion with a torch to shine a light in the darkest places. A companion who has no goals for you offers no judgment or advice but simply wants to get to know you, who you are today as we sit together.
I will help you understand the patterns you have that have continued to have a negative impact on your life so far. Together we can bring those behaviours into your awareness allowing you to be open to choosing new positive ways to approach life's struggles.
I have an interest and experience of working with:
● Low mood
● Depression
● Anxiety
● Trauma
● Survivors of rape
● Addiction
● LGBTQ+
● Self-worth and confidence
● Relating to self and others

Integrative Counsellor (BACP registered)
Sometimes our response to difficulties - whether everyday problems or traumatic events - feels like it has become the problem. We may feel our responses are unhelpful or don’t seem to relate to the problems we are facing. We may feel confused by how emotional we feel without being able to make sense of those feelings. We may start to judge ourselves for how we respond.
My aim is to help you to explore your feelings and find your own inner resources. These resources may have been obscured by anxiety, depression, anger, or any other feelings - or rules you unknowingly abide by - which are getting in the way of you feeling yourself. I aim to fulfill my role with warmth, respect, and care, without judgment, and to maintain the boundaries we need to keep the workplace safe.
My core way of working is “person-centered”. This means that I will trust in your potential and accompany you as we explore aspects of your life that may feel painful. I work integratively rather than in a purely person-centered way, which means that my work is informed by a number of different theories including transactional analysis and increasingly by trauma work. I will draw on these influences if I feel they may offer a perspective or insight which would be helpful to you.
Fees: I charge £50.00 per 50-minute session payable by cash, card, or cheque. I offer reduced rates to individuals on low income and counselling students. I also offer an initial session rate of £25.00. The initial session would last for 50 minutes and give us the chance to see whether we feel we could work well together. To book a session with me, please email: hannahcounselling4@gmail.com or call me on 07749 941991.

If you’ve got to this stage of looking for a counsellor you’ve probably already made the first step of what can sometimes be one of the hardest decisions around wanting things to change, by reaching out and looking for some help and support. At any time, we can find ourselves struggling to cope with everyday life. It could be something from the past that has always been in the shadows, or perhaps a recent event that impacts on our emotional and physical wellbeing. Whatever the problem, talking and working things through in your own way can really help, and as a psychotherapeutic counsellor I can offer this to you, within a non-judgmental, safe, confidential and supported space.

In my Creative Psychotherapy sessions there is a focus on the mind and body connection, therefore we are free to move around in the space, rather than staying sat down if you wish to. Sessions are client led, which means that we can explore whatever you want to focus on that day, using therapy props, movement, art or play as well as talking. There is a focus on the relationship between the client and therapist and the holding environment that we will be creating. You do not have to have any experience in art/ dance/ movement to be involved in Creative Psychotherapy, I will be led by your needs and do as much or as little movement as preferred.
You have made a huge first step in looking for a therapist, to support you on your therapy journey. We can work together to understand your current worries or past experiences, with no pressure to have to do or say anything that you do not wat to say. In this non-judgemental space we will CONNECT, EXPLORE, CREATE and REFLECT.

I am a counselor, psychotherapist, supervisor and counselling tutor with many years’ experience. I am a director of the Banbury Therapy Group which I founded with my husband in 2009.
My original training was with Oxford and Cherwell College where I graduated with a Diploma in Integrative Counselling in 2006. I then went on to further train in Group and Individual Gestalt Psychotherapy at the Gestalt Centre in London. Since then I have worked with a wide variety of clients in the community and in private practice. My training and experience give me the capacity to work at depth with a broad range of issues, life situations and mental health needs. I have worked with people struggling with depression and anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, personality disorders and overwhelming fears. I am particularly knowledgeable about addictive and compulsive behaviours, including alcoholism, drug dependency, eating disorders, gambling, sex, pornography and internet addiction.
I am a registered member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy). This ensures that I practice safely and ethically in my client’s best interests.
I want to get to know you and what makes you tick. My goal is that you gain insight and awareness of your own personality. In our sessions you will have time and space to examine your life, relationships, feelings, history and possible futures, without pressure or expectations. My experience has been time and again, that people gain clarity and direction for the future when they allow themselves to thoroughly explore what is going on for them in their lives right now. I believe in personal autonomy and my purpose is to provide a temporary support for your growth and development so that you can become a stronger, more insightful and independent version of yourself.
Many things might trigger a decision to come to counselling, it might be a life event, such as a bereavement, relationship break-down, change of job or geographical move, or it might be something that has been growing inside over time, troubling behaviours or feelings that skilled support to examine might help to clarify or resolve.
Sessions will take place at the same time every week. I contract with my clients for an initial period of 6 sessions, which we review together to decide if more sessions are required.
I charge £65 per 50-minute session. If you are on a low income or experiencing temporary financial difficulties, please do have a conversation with me as I have some low-cost places available. Contactless payment is available.
If you are interested in an initial appointment, please ring the Banbury Therapy Centre reception on 01295231320 or email info@banburytherapycentre.com I work at The Banbury Therapy Centre, Darwin House, 19 Parsons Street, Banbury, OX16 5LY

I am a counsellor and psychotherapist with over thirty years experience and currently Banbury in Oxfordshire. I trained at the Metanoia Institute in London in both Person Centred Counselling and Integrative Psychotherapy. I have also trained in sensorimotoe psychotherapy. I am registered with UKCP (United Kingdom of Psychotherapy) and am a senior accredited BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) practitioner.
I work with individuals and couples who want to make changes in their lives. This is sometimes a short process of just a few weeks and sometimes a longer process of exploration. Counselling and Psychotherapy can help towards gaining an understanding of difficulties, coping strategies and ultimately a greater sense of peace.
I have a qualification in supervision and have long term expereince of being a supervisor.
I work with individuals and couples on both a short or longer term basis and am highly skilled to listen and accept you and also to help shed light on the root of a difficulty and work through painful life events and situations.
The kinds of triggering events that I work with may be a bereavement, a broken relationship, problems at work or an addiction. Sometimes it is less clear to know why you are unhappy or distressed, but the opportunity to speak confidentially to a qualified practitioner can be immensely relieving. A process of counselling or psychotherapy can take just a few sessions to come to a new understanding or can be a longer term process.
I have a special interest in trauma and integrate Sensorimotor Psychotherapy in my practice, which is a newer paradigm that directly addresses the effects of trauma by working with the body without the need to use touch. Clients report an appreciation of its gentle and empowering interventions and its practical approach to internal distress. I am often able to offer help and tools for you to manage things in between sessions.
