I offer one to one personal counselling via video link or telephone to fit in with your lifestyle. As an experienced accredited counsellor I tailor sessions to meet your individual needs. I am not a "nodding dog" counsellor, I encourage you to explore and will offer challenge at times.

Wonderful experience.. never felt judged in any way at all.. very professional yet down to earth, laidback and understanding.
This experience was very eye opening and has made me a much stronger person then what I thought I'd ever be.. I'm so grateful and thankful aswell as blessed to have gotten the chance to work with Angela ...
I went into therapy not knowing what to expect, nervous and anxious but I can honestly say I was extremely surprised at how gentle unwinding and good it felt to vent ... I met a whole new me I never knew existed... 💃💪🏻

Angela is brilliant, she’s a true professional with a sense of humour, within no time you feel safe in her hands. She certainly knows her stuff, I learned so much from her, especially how to change my own mindset to make me a happier more relaxed person. The best decision I made was to choose her. More...

I strongly recommend Autonomy Counselling. I have thoroughly enjoyed every session and felt like I could have enjoyed many more. Angela is very reliable and always goes above and beyond. She has knowledge in a vast variety of areas, is trustworthy and is an Excellent listener. I felt comfortable from day one and I would not hesitate in recommending Angela as your personal therapist. Thank you More...

Angela really helped me, see from a different side that actually you're ok and everything that ever happens isn't your fault. She was calm, warm, friendly, understanding and patient when I couldn't open up. I no longer feel troubled by my past and finally feel ok. She built trust and made me no longer have a cloud over my head. Honestly I can't recommend her enough. 💙 More...

If it wasn't for Angela's help & dedication I wouldn't have got this far. It will be hard at times & you will feel your on an emotional roller coaster but with Angela's supportive guidance you will get there, I did & I can't thank her enough.
I'm now looking forward to my future for the first time.
The best decision I ever made was getting in touch with Angela, she has helped me like nobody else has, she is an amazing, caring & genuine counsellor.

The thought of counselling can be quite daunting and it can make you feel nervous and exposed. Angela is empathetic and compassionate and makes you feel like you are chatting to a good friend. She deals with your problem appropriately and gives you more self confidence and awareness. I would recommend her as an amazing and very professional practitioner. She has helped me through many dark and challenging moments in my life. I wish her luck with her new practise. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love building relationships with people, being able to empower them to grow and overcome difficulties. It is a privilege to be allowed into someones life as a therapist, and I want to be able to provide someone independent to walk alongside them until they are ready to go it alone. It is wonderful to be able to offer a service that follows my clients needs and responds accordingly. I find it is a massively rewarding profession.
What inspired you to start your own business?
The availability of NHS specialised counselling is sparse with long waiting lists and many loopholes and also often very time limited services. I recognised my clients needs often were not provided for and wanted to be able to offer an accessible professional service to clients that addressed their individual needs.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am a fully qualified professional counsellor and cognitive behavioural therapist. I am also an anger management consultant and I am a specialist sexual violence and abuse counsellor. In the past I have also worked as a primary care counsellor for five years working in GP surgeries. I also supervise professional counsellors and have taught on counselling degree courses.
I enjoy working with all clients presenting with many issues, although I do have specialities I am more than happy to work with most issues as this enables me to practice in all my areas of experience.
