Devon Care and Counselling
North Devon, Devon
North Devon, Devon
I believe that it is inevitable that we will all go through difficult times; it is part of what it means to be human.
What do we do when we’ve exhausted our usual coping methods? One way is to come and talk to someone like me. What I do is listen to you carefully and try to see life from your perspective and how you make sense of what’s going on for you.

What do you love most about your job?
I am able to listen to you in a completely non-judgmental, safe, confidential environment for you to address and resolve your issues. I am a qualified psychiatric nurse (RMN), working in the community and I am a qualified counsellor/psychotherapist. I am guided by the code of ethics and professional standards and ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). I have also accrued extensive training with the Samaritans.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I truly believe that we all deserve someone in our life to be able to talk through things with in a completely non judgemental environment, Sometimes when we are feeling low, we find it difficult to talk to those nearest and dearest to us, or sometimes in life, we just feel that we don't have anyone to confide in. I offer a counselling service which is completely confidential and non judgemental for you to talk through your worries, anxieties and any other issues that are troubling you.
The type of listening service that I offer is not based on diagnosing and treating, but respecting you and your capacity for growth and change. I offer a humanistic, person-centred approach, meaning that everything is about you, a very important and special person. We will explore life as you see it, what that means for you and what you can change in your life to make it better for you.
Why should our clients choose you?
I can offer a face to face listening service, an email correspondent service or a text messaging service. I can be there at a time when it is most convenient to you, to talk through and explore what is affecting you and your life choices. I am also able to offer more creative and flexible forms of therapy. Talking need not take place in the confines of the 'therapy room.' I am now able to offer 'walk and talk' sessions if you feel that you would like a less formal environment.
I can also offer to visit you in the comfort of your own home for face to face counselling.
Please give me a call to discuss your particular needs.
