Jeannie Gadsden

Hello, I’m Jeannie, I would like to offer you a warm welcome.

You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, have low mood, or be feeling emotionally exhausted. You might be supporting someone else and finding it hard to cope.

I work with adults and teenagers, providing a warm, supportive, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can feel safe to talk openly and feel truly heard.

I offer counselling that is flexible, understanding, and adapted to your individual needs.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting counselling, we can gently explore what’s going on together, at your pace.

I am a qualified counsellor and a registered member of the Â鶹ԭ´´ and work in accordance with their ethical framework. 

As an integrative counsellor, I tailor our work to suit your individual needs, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches. 

At the heart of my practice is a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship built on empathy, compassion, and respect.

Alongside talking therapy, I offer creative and experiential tools, including sand tray therapy, which can be particularly helpful if words feel difficult or overwhelming. Creative approaches can provide a gentler way to explore emotions, memories, and experiences.

I also offer walk-and-talk counselling in the summer months, which many clients find supportive, if sitting in a therapy room feels too intense or if being outdoors in nature helps you to feel more at ease.

Taking the first step towards counselling can feel daunting, and you're not alone in that, especially if you’re unsure what you need or whether counselling will help.

My aim is to support you in understanding your experiences, strengthening your wellbeing and creating positive change in a space where you can feel accepted and valued.

Our first session will be about getting to know each other, to explore your reason for coming to therapy and what you hope to gain from it.

Each session lasts for 50 minutes.

You’re very welcome to get in touch to ask any questions or to arrange an initial session. We can take things gently and see whether working together feels right for you.

I look forward to hearing from you.
