Lucy Atherton
I’m a BACP accredited counsellor and I believe in the capacity for individuals to grow and develop a greater self-awareness through the therapeutic process.
I offer a calm and confidential space for you to explore what has brought you to counselling and work using a Gestalt approach which means that there will be a focus on exploring your experience as it unfolds in the here and now of the sessions. This may include exploring current life situations as well as past experiences and how they might inform the present. Sometimes we can get stuck in fixed patterns or ways of being in our lives and counselling can be an opportunity explore new ways of being.
My aim is to create a safe environment for you to speak and be heard, to form the foundation of a trusting relationship and help raise awareness of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours and how they impact your relationship to yourself and others day to day. I believe that by gaining new insights into how you think and feel you will develop a stronger sense of yourself and live your life in a more fulfilling way.
