Marcella offers lots of advice to heal before and after sessions.

I am enjoying energy healing, I find Marcella’s therapy and expertise is helping my wellbeing so much. I recommend Marcella as a healer without question.

I found Marcella earlier this year when I was looking for a grief counsellor, I didn’t know how to express myself and make sense of what was going on in my head. Marcella went above and beyond my expectations of a counsellor and with each session I felt there was a personal touch for me and my needs. In the past I haven’t found talking therapy helpful and felt like the sessions were heavily scripted without any real connection. Marcella gets to know you and can identify connections and patterns in your thinking and makes helpful suggestions for how to deal with difficult situations. I attended 9 sessions with her and on the last session we discussed my journey from the beginning to the present day and I couldn’t quite believe how far I had come, I will miss our sessions but she has enabled me to understand my grief and I left with much better coping skills than I could of hoped for. Would 100% recommend her for grief counselling. Thank you Marcella xx More...

Bereavement Counselling

I was unsure whether counselling was something I would benefit from - working with Marcella proved me wrong. She was easy to talk to and gauged the right approach for me. At the end of the sessions I found I could reflect on my grief in a positive way and work towards my repositioning. She helped me not to think to far ahead and to the value of self care. More...

Therapist

Marcella is an excellent counsellor.
At my first session she listened to the issues that took me to needing a therapeutic intervention. Then she explained the structure of our forthcoming sessions clearly and I felt safe and comfortable to be open and trust the process of getting better.
Marcella gave me many ideas and relevant sources of information to utilise after my weekly sessions.
I have made great improvements after just 5 weeks, and am positive that this will get even better during our future sessions.
I can't recommend Marcella enough.

Q&As

What I love most about my job is the courage clients have to start counselling, who open themselves up to me when there in their most vulnerable state and are able to heal. Its an emotional rollercoaster we both go on and its truly amazing to be a witness the changes that happen.

The inspiration for me was I wanted to use my skills, knowledge and natural intuition to bring balance and happiness back into the lives of clients who required help. Counselling and energy healing training have helped to set up a business, which I am massively passionate about.

We all go through challenging times in our lives, which can cause intense anxiety and depression, leading to feelings of fear, sadness, loss, anger, and frustration. As a person centred counsellor, I will work with you to break down barriers or thinking patterns that cause disharmony, to hopefully find some answers to issues, restoring balance back into your life. This takes place by talking about presenting current problems, which helps to unravel difficult feelings being experienced to facilitate change and provide an ‘emotional reslilience tool box’, to help move forward in life

My challenging life experiences give me some insight and empathy into helping you, I do not know your unique struggles but having been through therapy, which helps me to understand your pain and how difficult a journey you have been on and the process of going through counselling.

I have an optimistic outlook on life, manage my own business, work at a school supporting children with social, emotional and mental health needs. I have a loving family, friends, two furry friends, who give me so much support and encouragement. I find being creative calming, so handmade creations make me happy. I try to ‘go with the flow’, have fun and remember to have the essence of love in everything I do.

I can help with anxiety, bereavement, depression, family-issues, relationships, self-esteem issues, stress at work/in life, women’s health issues, including menopause, infertility, chronic health conditions including endometriosis. I can offer short, long term counselling options and emotional balancing intensive therapy

I am an experienced remote counsellor, with online, telephone and can provide in person counselling if in my local area. I use Google Meet or Zoom for online.

If its an in person session, masks can be worn and washing hands before session.

‘Life experience, years of training and time helping others, allows me to support you to find a way through the woods towards a path that works for you.’



Integrative counselling is a combined approach that brings together different therapy approaches to help the client. As an integrative therapist I believe here is no single approach that can treat each client in all situations. Everybody is unique and counselling techniques can be tailored to needs and personal circumstances.

Energy Healing is a holistic practice to help balance, heal and promote self healing within the body. I attune to the source of universal healing energy to allow help to restore balance to a clients body and mind. There have been lots of studies on energy healing for depression and helping people going through cancer, which have been effective and positive.
