Norma Boyd
Integrative counsellorAbout Me
Hello! My name is Norma, welcome to my profile.
Making the decision to look for help and support can be very daunting. I am very glad that you have made that step for yourself.
Are you struggling with thoughts and feelings that you can’t quite make sense of? Experiencing low mood and maybe lack of energy, overwhelmed, or confused? Maybe you have experienced life changes such as relationship breakdown or difficulties in your current relationship. Loss of work, bereavement, poor mental health? Life changes can make us question our sense of self and how we function in our day-to-day life.
If you are ready to take that step, I would like to help you explore your thoughts and feelings in what is happening for you. I provide a safe, warm space to explore at your own pace and comfort level. Friends and family can be great listeners, but some thoughts and feeling may be difficult to share.
I work in the Integrative Model which means I take from various therapeutic approaches. This allows me to tailor our work to meet your individual needs. My aim is to help you find clarity, confidence, empowerment and wellbeing to return to a sense of normality.
In my counselling role I experience working with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, low-confidence, loss, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties. For many years I have helped people with bereavement of a loved one by suicide.
I am a qualified counsellor and registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). Also, a member of the ACTO (Association for Counselling and Therapy Online).
If you feel you would like to reach out to me, I offer a free 30-minute session. This will help you decide if you feel comfortable with me, and if I am the right fit for you. Choosing the right counsellor for you is an important decision.
Thank you for viewing my profile. If you decide to work with myself or another counsellor, I wish you well on your counselling journey.
