Hello, I am Frances, thank you for taking the time to read my profile.
I live in the UK, a registered member of the BACP, and have been in private practice since 2018, and counselling people going through cancer treatment , along with their families for 3 years before that .I feel so privileged to have the opportunity to help people move forward in their lives for a happier , more fulfilling future, it is so rewarding.
Clients tell me I am very easy to talk to, and if you decide to work with me, I will offer you an empathic, safe , non judgmental space in which to talk about your thoughts and feelings.
I have been through life’s highs and lows myself, which gives me wisdom and experience to enhance our sessions.
I am a creative counsellor, and use visualisation, imagery, symbols, sand tray therapy etc as well as talking therapy to assist my clients to find and express their thoughts and feelings, when finding the right words can be difficult.
I trained as an integrative counsellor, which is beneficial for my clients because it offers flexibility to work in a way most helpful to you.
I also offer couples and relationship counselling, this could be to help a couple improve their relationship, or facilitate an amicable ending , if that is what the couple have already decided to do .

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
