Julie Bashford

I currently have sessions available, please contact me for days and times 

Hi, I’m Julie a counsellor and registered member of the Â鶹ԭ´´. I work with both young people and adults, offering support with a wide range of challenges. Alongside my private practice, I also work in schools and Additional Provision Centres, which gives me valuable insight into the everyday pressures children, teenagers, and families often face.

I hold a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling and a Level 5 Diploma in Counselling Children and Young People, and I’m currently completing a Level 6 Diploma in Trauma and PTSD. This means I can adapt my way of working to suit you—whether that’s talking therapy or using creative approaches if they feel helpful.

My priority is to offer a safe, welcoming, and non-judgemental space where you can share your experiences and feel truly heard. I’ve worked with people facing anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, bereavement, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, exam stress, and social challenges. I also have extensive experience supporting parents and carers of children with SEND

Sessions are 1 hour and I can offer face to face, online or telephone sessions.   I am able to offer face to face session in central Worthing and Littlehampton . 

My commitment is to provide a professional, inclusive, and client-centred service, helping individuals to increase self-awareness, build resilience, and work towards lasting positive change.

Before meeting for the first time we will have a telephone conversation to talk through your expectations from counselling sessions and what you are hoping to achieve and we will discuss how we will work together in a safe and secure way .
