Hello, and a warm welcome to you.
Taking the first step to seeking support can be a challenging one, and I commend you for already getting this far.
My name is Aimee Cooke and I am an Integrative Counsellor. This means I have a variety of knowledge, skills, techniques and tools that I can tailor to your specific needs. We are all different and require support in many different ways, and I commit to offering you a space in which we can work together to create safety, trust, and compassion.
I understand from both personal and professional experience that counselling is a challenging process. I feel it is important for us to collaboratively build a therapeutic relationship where you can begin to experience an open and safe environment. Within this, we can begin to raise awareness of your thoughts and feelings in order to bring about growth and self-compassion. I can and will listen to you without judgment, respond to you with kindness, and support you at a pace that feels safe and considerate to your needs. You are the expert of your own life, and I will be here to meet you where you are.
I have experience of supporting individuals with an array of challenges, including stress, anxiety and depression, as well as relationship issues, low self-esteem and confidence, and feeling a lack of purpose in life. I also have experience of working with individuals living with the effects of trauma.
I practice in accordance with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society's ethical framework, which can be found here https://ncps.com/about-us/code-of-ethics
I look forward to getting to know you,
Aimee.

Knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful and educates me on my feelings. I’m new to therapy but the last 2 sessions have been brilliant and I’m starting to feel better already! I’m always given tasks or practices to help my feelings as and when they occur. Thanks again for the help!
