More about Patricia

  • 3 years' experience

  • NCPS

Hello and a warm welcome to my profile. I'm Tricia and I'm a fully qualified Integrative Counsellor. I work with clients that struggle with issues such as anxiety, low mood and low self-esteem. I have a particular interest in working with clients who are having problems in their personal relationships. So many of us struggle with setting boundaries, people pleasing and managing conflict, that it can have a detrimental effect on all aspects of our lives.

While coping strategies can be very helpful, I believe it's also important to explore past events. In order to heal we need to understand the patterns that have been established at an early age, and realise how they are affecting our lives today. I support clients to explore these patterns and to release them, so they can move forward.

I discovered my passion for the area of mental health when I completed my degree in Applied Psychology. I subsequently trained as an Integrative Counsellor by completing an Advanced Diploma in Counselling. I am also a Mental Health First Aider. I have worked in the field of mental health for over 20 years.

​My approach is integrative, which means that when I work with you, I will use tools from different counselling theories to help you in a way that's tailored to you. Some clients find CBT strategies helpful, while others wish to go a little deeper and explore where their anxiety stems from. In these cases, I find work around self-compassion and healing the Inner Child very powerful.

Issues I work with include:

- Relationship and family challenges and breakdowns

- Low confidence and self esteem

- Anxiety

- Bereavement

- Challenges with identity and purpose

I am committed to my continuing professional development and regularly engage in courses and workshops to support and update my clinical practice.

I am a registered and accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). This means I have met the NCPS high quality standard as a competent, ethical and independent practitioner, and practice in accordance with the guidelines and code of ethics of the NCPS.

My work is fully insured and professionally supervised.

- BSc(Hons) Applied Psychology

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.
