About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I'm Carrie and I provide Psychotherapeutic Counselling to children, young people and adults who are experiencing difficulties for a range of reasons; anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, bullying, grief and loss, sleep difficulties, exam and education pressures, and dysregulation. I have also previously worked within the Charity Sector in a trauma service for Children that had experience grief and sexual abuse. I enjoy using a range of creative interventions when working with clients. This could be in the form of talking, clay, paint, drawing, imagery and sand tray. Being an integrative counsellor means I use a range of therapeutic approaches. Working in this way helps me meet the individual needs of each young person, explore their emotions, improve their emotional well-being, develop resilience and achieve their goals. I am passionate about supporting clients in a creative way to overcome challenges and reach their full potential.
Practice description
I currently work within schools and offer one to one in person sessions in Azure Therapy Centre in Whitley Bay.
My first session
Prior to booking I offer a free initial 15 minute phone call to talk through any relevant information.
During our first meeting I will carry out an initial assessment that aims to gather appropriate information around life history, education, support structures and goals for the therapeutic work. This meeting will also give us the chance to see if we are the right fit for each other, as I believe this is a very important factor of successful therapy!
During our first sessions will make a contract together and discuss our rules for the therapeutic work. We will also talk about safeguarding, confidentiality and goals for the therapeutic work.
