Patrizia Mazzoli

Hello, I am Patrizia! As an integrative relational counsellor I draw from a range of psychotherapy and counselling modalities, including Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Gestalt, CBT, Mindfulness, Existential approaches and Sound Therapy to support you in a way that best suits your individual needs. While these therapeutic models offer valuable insights, I believe that the heart of a meaningful and lasting change lies in the therapeutic relationship itself. I strive to offer a safe and compassionate space where we can explore what is happening in your life and begin the journey towards healing and personal growth. What makes me passionate about my work is a deep belief in each person's capacity to grow, heal and connect fully with ourselves and others, especially when we are met with empathy, respect and acceptance. I offer a holistic approach to wellbeing, supporting the mind, body and soul. My practice is inclusive and respectful of all cultural backgrounds, sexualities and spiritual believes. I have worked extensively in NHS surgeries, acquiring a broad experience in a wide range of mental health difficulties and a deep awareness of social and cultural diversity and differences. I also offer Outdoor Counselling to those who find the conventional setting of the therapeutic room uncomfortable. Walk and Talk Therapy regards nature as a healing and nourishing place for the body, mind and soul, and a space where clients find it easier to connect to themselves and their feelings. Emotional healing isn't just about talking, it is also about feeling, releasing and reconnecting with the self on a deeper level. While Counselling offers a safe space to explore thoughts, patterns and emotional challenges through dialogue and reflection, SOUND HEALING adds a vibrational layer that helps quiet the mind, calm the nervous system and creates space for inner stillness and emotional release. Words speak to the mind but sound speaks to the soul. If you are ready to make a positive change in your life, I am here to support you. I offer a 15mins free initial consultation to discuss your needs and how we might work together. "People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be" (Carl R. Rogers) I abide by the BACP code of ethics, I have ongoing supervision and regularly attend professional development courses. I also hold a DBS certificate.
