More about Sherrie

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am an Integrative Counsellor that offers support to those that feel that life has got too much or is feeling overwhelmed, stressed, sad, worried or lonely. I can help you deal with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, childhood trauma, ill health, low self-esteem and other issues.

If you have experiences in your life that you feel you need to process, or take the time to explore in your own time & at your own pace, then I’m here to help & support you through your journey.

I offer remote, telephone counselling sessions that can suit & fit into your lifestyle.

Our sessions are your time & space to explore & get to know the real you without judgement or pressure. Compassion, empathy, respect and patience are at the heart of my approach allowing my clients the opportunity to be themselves and to find their inner strength and resilience to achieve their goals.

Gaining self-awareness allows us to understand how we behave and how our past experiences affect who we are today. Exploring how & why we think and feel can help us understand our worries, fears and behaviours, enabling us to gain our own self-awareness and confidence utilising the skills & coping tools & strategies we learn through the therapeutic relationship, to deal with the future challenges life throws at us.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
