Patience Destiny

Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist

Something About Me

I am a qualified Counsellor/Therapist with over 11years’ experience. I work within & adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework. My core training & approach to Therapy is Integrative using Humanistic/Person-Centred, CBT/Cognitive Behaviour & Psychodynamic modalities. My therapeutic work is geared towards You – the client’s wellbeing and whole-being.

I offer 1:1 counselling support in a safe, confidential, nurturing, non-judgemental space for a varying range of issues – anxiety, trauma, abuse, family/relationship issues, behavioural issues, depression, addictive behaviours, general wellbeing. I offer therapeutic support to clients dealing with terminal/life threatening health issues, loss/bereavement/grief, anticipatory grief/loss/bereavement for patients and/or their loved ones & carers.

There are no text-book clients – You are the expert authority on what makes You uniquely You. In each unique therapeutic relationship, I explore the client’s whole-being, past lived experiences & presenting issue(s). We collaboratively explore the right mixture of modalities/approaches to best work for you. I support you as you tap into your innate strength, capabilities & resources, for the changes you need towards your desired mental, emotional whole-wellbeing.

It’s not an easy process, I’ll at times challenge your inner dialogue, thoughts & beliefs, but it’ll be worth the time, work & effort – I’ll support you as you work towards Empowering & revealing to yourself clearer, newer, alternative, positive, grounded, manageable understanding of yourself and how you relate/deal with life.

You don’t have to wait until a crisis to seek emotional or mental health support. It’s part of one’s ongoing self-care.
