Hi, my name is Abbie. I am a qualified counsellor offering long-term and short-term therapy. My main aim as a counsellor is to provide a secure and confidential space for my practice which is centred around kindness, safety, integrity and acceptance. I offer face-to-face sessions in HD9 as well as outdoor therapy. Together we will explore, at a pace that is right for you, any issues that are stopping you from living your life and holding you back from reaching your full potential.
