Online Counselling with Gemma

Sessions available from July 2026!

I'm a trainee person-centred counsellor reaching the end of my training.  I am offering low-cost weekly online counselling sessions - £1 to £20 - for up to 8 sessions.   I have sessions available on Tuesday evenings or Wednesday afternoons, starting in July 2026.  Because I am still in training, your initial assessment for suitability for counselling would be carried out by Jens.  

My way of working

I believe you are the best expert of yourself and I'm here to offer a non-judgmental and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.  I have experience of working with loss & grief, abuse, low-income, low-mood, depression and anxiety.

I volunteered with a mental health crisis phone line for two and a half years. I have also had the role of a face to face listening support volunteer in food banks. I have a deep understanding for how our mental health symptoms can so often be tied to our financial circumstances. I spent many years on disability benefits myself before I had a successful surgery and I'm now keen to use this second chance to help others. I'm passionate about offering low-cost counselling to those who need it. 

Sessions available from September 2026!

I'm an ecotherapist - which means I offer counselling & psychotherapy in and with nature.  I am person-centred, which means I trust in your personal process of change and don't try to tell you what do - just as I wouldn't tell a tree how to grow or a butterfly how to emerge from their chrysalis. 

I work outdoors in beautiful natural settings in Shropshire.  I have offered 'walk and talk' sessions for over 10 years, and recently been developing a 'swim and talk' model.  I am BACP Senior Accredited and am also an experienced supervisor and trainer.  

I am not taking on new clients or supervisees at the moment, but will have some availability from September 2026.
