Petina Walker

Hello, welcome to my Get Clarity Counselling Page... 

I work in Private Practice throughout the week, including several evenings. 

If when you call you find I am unavailable, please leave me a voicemail on 0773 0202 179 or send me a text or email at  getclaritywithtina@gmail.com. I will get back to you as soon as I can. 

Please also remember that if you need to talk to someone  urgently the Samaritans offer a telephone support service 24/7...  Their number is: 116-123

If you are in an emergency situation please call 999. 

I am based in Exeter, Devon, UK. 

However, I work with a caseload of International clients, mostly online.  

I am an Advanced Integrative Counsellor and Accredited Belief Coding庐锔� Facilitator with 18 years counselling experience.

I have worked in private practice & various charity & NHS settings.

I am trauma informed and describe my self as an "awake" therapist. 

Transactional Analysis underpins my practice.

I work intuitively with my clients. 

The spiritual and energetic aspect of my practice, where I integrate Belief Coding庐锔� and breathwork, has really stepped up my practice. My Integrative Approach is powerful and transformative. Working with the subconscious mind allows for the discovery and release of trapped emotions held within the body which can be the outcome of traumatic or negative, past events, which manifest  as emotional blocks and self-limiting beliefs and associated unhelpful behaviours and even dis-ease and physical illness.

Belief Coding庐锔� is science backed and allows us to facilitate deep  healing, often working with early years or ancestral trauma. 

I am experienced in working with all aspects of "life" which may cause a client to seek counselling. 

My specialisms are dependency, addiction & stress, trauma & grief. 

Prior to my career change, I ran an award winning wellbeing centre & Spa in Exeter. I supported many clients through loss, through cancer treatment, divorce, relationship breakdown & intimate partner violence/abuse & transgender reassignment. I really felt that helping people on a deeper level was my calling. So began what was to become my rewarding career as a counsellor in 2006. 

I also provide Freelance Counselling for:

Sporting Chance; Counselling Elite Sports Professionals & Elite Athletes.

SP Bespoke Wellbeing Solutions Ltd who provide bespoke support in the home for clients needing assistance with dependency and addiction.  

I also provide discreet counselling for a number of local and national charities. 

My Standard Practice is to provide FULL, ONE HOUR Counselling Sessions (Not 50 minutes - I complete my notes after my sessions). 

The cost of Counselling is 拢65 per hour, for individuals.

(However, I have recently introduced the option of a 50 min session for 拢55 to be comparable with other therapists who offer a 50 minute counselling session and include note taking in the hour). 

After our initial assessment meeting/telephone call, we agree a number of initial sessions and review your progress regularly. 

Couples counselling is 拢75 per 1 hour 15 mins, per couple.

Student/Fellow Counsellors, NHS employees, Veterans and clients on a low income or in receipt of benefits the fee is reduced by 5%

Belief Coding庐锔� sessions include a discovery/assessment telephone call with two follow up calls. 

Belief Coding庐锔� Sessions can take around 2+ hours 拢195

I offer a range of packages to combine Counselling with Belief Coding庐锔� as well as block bookings, which are slightly reduced in price. 

Get Clarity - Rehab at Home Programme - Alcohol Reduction and Abstinence & Sobriety Support.  

Specialist Support to detox, reduce & abstain from alcohol. A tailor made and safely paced programme over 1-12 months which includes support on a daily basis, including Counselling interventions, Belief Coding庐锔� Psycho-education and Coaching. Flexibility regarding Approaches  include, 12 Step, SMART or MAP or Intuitive Recovery Approaches. I offer a truly Integrative Approach.  Price on Application. 

StressMapping庐锔� Helps you to explore your individual sources of stress and your response to them, which includes detecting your own burnout zone.. CBT  is the modality underpinning StressMapping庐锔� 

A StressMapping庐锔� Programme includes your own personal Stress Map, Grid and New Directions Workbook and Step by Step Plan as well as a preparation session, a Stressmap Coaching Session, which can take 2 hours, and plus two  follow up calls. 拢500

The full fee will be charged if insufficient notice is given for cancellations. 

Firstly, upon referral or inquiry. I'll follow up with a direct telephone call or email.. I'll send you my counselling information & privacy policy for you to peruse in your own time. 

If you would like an initial appointment I often send out my initial assessment form to complete before we first meet. 

Rest assured your confidentiality is as important to me as the effectiveness and safety of your treatment. (All correspondence containing sensitive information is password protected and filed securely).

During our first session and throughout our work I may use tools to monitor progress and identify any risks. Our first session gives you an opportunity to talk and for us to identify your desired outcome. 

I always aim to complete counselling in a timely manner, however, there is huge value in having a time and a place set aside for you to talk without time constraints or pressure, allowing you to take as long as you need to work through and reach conclusions that feel right for you. 

Pacing and being familiar with "your safe space" is an essential part of the counselling & recovery process.  Sometimes counselling requires periods of time to pause, practice, process and reflect.

Everybody has the right to stop counselling whenever they choose. However, endings are really important and benefit from spending time to acknowledge the work completed and what has been achieved. 

I hope my introduction has been helpful. If you have any questions please do reach out, there is absolutely no obligation to take up counselling and that telephone call could just be the life-changing call! 

I appreciate the courage that it takes to reach out. There is no judgement here! I'll look forward to hearing from you.
