Who I Am

Introduction

Hello my name is Jackie, welcome to

Garden Gate Counselling.

I am a qualified Humanistic - Integrative Counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) working towards accreditation.

I understand that looking for the right counsellor can be daunting, I am able to offer you a confidential space in which you can explore your emotions, feelings, relationships or perhaps to make sense of your world.

It is our therapeutic relationship which is built on trust, which can ensure the effectiveness of our work together.

Being empathic open and a good listener are natural inherent parts of who I am. These qualities have been further enhanced by my training as a Humanistic Integrative Counsellor.

Situated on the outskirts of Tring, in the Chilterns, my counselling environment is a quiet haven in which time spent here will be uninterrupted.

It is accessible for wheelchair users and on street parking is available.

Proceeding my work as a counsellor I was a registered nurse for over twenty years. Prior to this I worked for eighteen years in the insurance industry based mainly in the City of London.

I enjoy photography, travelling, visiting gardens, sculptures and walking by the sea.

My Treatment Focus

My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths.

I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns.

My goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

My Therapy

Depression & Anxiety

Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives.

Through counselling I am able to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life.

Trauma & PTSD

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances.

Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events.

I can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing.

Bereavement

Grief is a normal response, however its many different symptoms and impact vary considerably with all of us.

Experiencing overwhelming sadness, anger, guilt and other powerful feelings may prove difficult to cope with as these can affect our lives because we are unable to understand why we acting or beginning to feel different in our perception of normality.

I am experienced in supporting individuals through their bereavement and am currently working as a counsellor in a day Hospice and also for a charity supporting those affected by road death.

Fees

Initial session of 45 minutes is free of charge, as I believe that trust and acceptance are two important elements of a counselling relationship and this session will enable you to decide whether I am the counsellor to meet your needs.

Subsequent sessions are £50 per hour.
