Student Counsellor Support
I love supporting student counsellors who are working their way towards becoming a qualified counsellor, if you would like to receive support in your studies, then let’s have a conversation.
My experiences of training & studying the approaches of ‘Psychodynamic’ & ‘Person Centred’ counselling began in 2007, it took me discipline and dedication to attain the relevant qualifications I required to work in this amazing profession.
As you get deeper into the training & studies, your own therapeutic counselling becomes mandatory, affordable sessions at a discounted rate are available to you when my availability allows so if you require regular sessions you can secure this by block booking.
I offer discounted rates for student counsellors at, with the option of counselling session at my private therapy room in Colchester, Essex plus where permitted via video calls.
See my ‘Services’ section for price options for student counselling.
