Francesca Sullivan
Integrative counsellorAbout Me
You may be experience a time in your life where things feel too much. It maybe difficult to process and understand your thoughts and feelings. You may feel your experiences are holding you back from living and enjoying your life.
Counselling can offer you a space to explore and process your thoughts and feelings. It offers a space where you feel heard, and your feelings validated. Counselling can help gain understanding, improve self-awareness and make positive changes that feel right for you.
Hello, my name is Francesca and thank you for visiting my page. I work with people experiencing many different worries including anxiety, anger, and low self-esteem.
I am an integrative counsellor, meaning that I tailor the way I work to fit your needs.
Our sessions are client led, meaning it is your space and time that can be used exploring whatever you wish to bring, working at a pace that is right for you.
I offer a confidential, safe, and non-judgemental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
I hold the therapeutic relationship at the heart of our work together and I approach my work with warmth, honesty and the greatest of care. I create a trusting space, in which you feel supported, valued, and listened to.
“Our grief is as individual as our lives.”
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
I am a bereavement, grief and loss informed counsellor.
Grief is often associated with the loss of a loved one, whereas grief can apply to every area of our lives. Anything from losing a precious item to a beloved pet.
I have experienced grief and loss myself and understand these effect everyone in different ways. I understand there is no right or wrong way to process a loss and I offer a space to explore yours with you.
