I’m working in outdoor spaces in and around Runcorn and Frodsham to provide a very special therapeutic setting for my counselling work.
The natural environment plays an important role in my work with clients. I primarily work outdoors in areas of woodland, waterside, hill and heath in and around Runcorn and Frodsham in Cheshire. Places where we can connect with natural cycles, with a world outside of ourselves and with the environments we evolved to be in. Nature offers an expansive space in which clients can express their most difficult thoughts and feelings and feel held and nurtured. A place where we can explore the big questions in life.
Working outdoors adds an additional healing element to my approach, which is grounded in the principles of empathy, warmth and acceptance. I offer you a space where you can experience the magic of being fully heard and understood and accepted as you are. This approach guides you to connecting with your own wisdom about who you are, how you relate to others and what you want in life.
I seek to empower each client to find answers within themselves in an environment which nurtures exploration and development. The therapeutic space is your space. Your space to express your thoughts and feelings fully without fear of judgement. Your space in which your pain can be expressed, acknowledged, accepted. Your space to explore who you are and what is important to you in life. We may also explore early life experiences that have had an impact on you or defence mechanisms you use to cope. We may look at patterns of thinking that affect your emotions and actions.
I also work online or face-to-face at premises in Halton or Frodsham.
Sessions currently available at Space Runcorn on Regent Street in Runcorn old town, or at Castle Park Arts Centre near Frodsham town centre.
