I am flexible with my hours, offering in private sessions as well as on-line.

My name is Julia, I am an integrative counsellor, working with you, to your agenda, at a pace that feels right for you. I will walk with you empathically, without judgement, building on the therapeutic relationship to enable you to feel safe, held and heard. I work within a holistic framework, seeing and honouring the whole person, mind, body and soul. As an integrative counsellor I am able to draw on my knowledge and experience of many different approaches, which allow me to tailor the sessions to your individual needs. You are the expert on your life, everyone has the ability to change, becoming their true authentic self, given the right conditions.

I will never try and 'fix' or advise you, my aim is to listen to you, empowering you to trust your own instincts and make choices in life that are right for you. The significance of the therapeutic relationship between the client and the therapist is as crucial as the healing process, the benefits can be life changing. 

Having undergone my own personal counselling, I know how uncomfortable it can be to open up to someone, I will always be there to hold you. 

I offer both in person and online work for clients, seeking long or short term counselling.

I practise in Glastonbury, Somerton and Langport, all of which provide free parking. 

Sessions are 60 minutes 

As the sessions progress and the work becomes deeper, your needs may change. We have regular check-ins to make sure you are happy with how things are going, are we are covering the areas you wish, it's also a time for you to voice any concerns you may have.

All sessions are strictly confidential, committing to counselling is very brave and can feel daunting, if at any time you wish to stop or take a break, we can discuss this together.

It's so important that a client feels they are with the right counsellor,  I offer a complementary provisional 20 minute video call for you to ask questions and decide if I am the person for you. If you wish to book the first session I will email you the contract, giving you  time to read and digest before we meet, preparing any questions you may have. 

During our first sessions, I will ask questions to get a better understanding of you, what brought you to counselling, how do you feel about counselling, to identify your needs and desired outcome. You will be invited to ask any questions you may have and if you are happy with our working agreement.

If you comfortable to begin the work me, I would advise, where possible, weekly sessions, at the same time.
