More about Vanessa

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

The likelihood is that if you feel drawn to working with me, I have either been through some similar issue or my experience means that I have the capacity to be able to empathise and support you fully with whatever it is that brings you to therapy.

I have worked with numerous agencies and with a wide range of issues to include anxiety, low self esteem, pain management, co-dependency, loss & grief, rejection and abandonment, through to trauma (sexual, racial, developmental, relational, generational), personality disorders, and many others. It is possible to heal.

I tailor my approach to what you bring into the therapeutic space and work creatively and intuitively. I am able to integrate a range of modalities working cognitively with the mind, somatically with the body and psycho dynamically/spiritually incorporating the spirit/soul enabling you to bring your full self into the therapy sessions. Our working together may involve focusing on the alleviation of a specific ailment or condition, or it may involve an exploration of your early years of development to understand how it impacts your present, relationship to Self, nature and the world.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
