Judy Mitchell<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am an experienced person-centred therapist using integrative skills including solution focused and existential models, when required. I work with children from 6 years old, adolescents and adults with mild to moderate issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can help you with a variety of issues such as, but not exhaustive: depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, anger and bereavement. My training in Humanistic Counselling enables me to work empathically and unconditionally, empowering people to grow emotionally towards their ideal self, allowing self-actualisation to take place, enabling people to reach their ideal potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can all need emotional support at times with events such as life changes, trauma and past events. These can impede our coping skills. As a Counsellor I can offer a safe, non-judgemental environment for individuals to explore their feelings, behaviours and emotions and be able to move forward and regain a sense of self-empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supervisor Profile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am a qualified Counselling Supervisor, having a Certificate in Clinical Supervision, providing professional support for Counsellors. This uses the 7 eyed model of supervision which provides a safe environment to bring your personal and professional work to explore, along with support for your professional development. I work in person, online, face to face and via the telephone. I can offer a supportive space for counsellors trained in humanistic, person-centred and solution focused models. I can also work with student counsellors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to me that the supervisee and supervisor relationship is a valued safe space to explore your counselling journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been working as a qualified as a Counsellor in BA (Hons) Humanistic Counselling for the past 10 years, working with all ages from 6 years old. I have built up a strong private practice and also for schools and employment assisted programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will be required to have checked with your own governing body as to the limits of your supervision responsibilities before we can proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am happy to talk to you initially by telephone as a free introductory offer where your supervision needs can be considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Future face to face sessions could be offered for people in the Grantham, Lincolnshire area, as well as working on-line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My prices are: \u00a360:00 for 60 minutes, \u00a375:00 for 90 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Student prices on enquiry and block booking packages considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
