Counselling for Adults, Children & Young People
Hello my name's Fran & I am a fully qualified counsellor/psychotherapist. I work in & around Derby & Ilkeston supporting children from the age of 7, young people & adults.
I believe one of the most difficult steps can be the initial contact and meeting. It can be very hard to admit to yourself & someone else that you'd benefit or need some kind of help and support. I can help ease this.
I'm here to actively listen & help you explore your own emotions, issues & thoughts, past & present. I will guide you to reach your own decisions in your own time, giving you a safe, confidential space in which I will not judge you or anything you bring. I provide the tools where you can gain a deeper understanding of yourself and feel more in control of your life and relationships.
I am passionate in working creatively not only through speaking therapy. The outdoors, animals, art & writing are all powerful tools.
I offer face to face, online and telephone sessions.
Feel free to reach out and contact me either by telephone, txt or email.

My Beliefs
I believe everyone has the ability to be in a good place & reach their ongoing goals.
I promise you that I will be by your side every step of the way.
From time to time we can loose our self confidence & we have no idea why we feel this way. You can feel like your emotions & thoughts are taking over your whole existence, however large or small they may seem. Some of our experiences can erupt & impact our daily lives in unforeseen ways and I will work alongside you calmly with gentle challenges.
My core training and belief is person-centred and I have evolved over the years in working more integrative to create a deeper holistic approach suited to your needs.
Over the past 11 years, in addition to my private practice, I have experience in working in various settings including charities, schools and a hospice. I support children from the age of 7, young people, adults & the elderly (this includes neaurodiverse people). I hold an up to date enhanced DBS & continue to engage in up to date safeguarding level 3, CPD and supervision . I am also a member of the I.C.O.
A lot of my work tends to be around; bereavement, stress, depression, anxiety, bullying, autism/ADHD, domestic abuse & abuse, low self esteem, trauma, self harm, sexuality, and more.
