About Me
I’m Tricia,
I’m a person-centred counsellor with a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. I also volunteer as a counsellor with MIND and Cruse in Herefordshire. Before training as a therapist, I spent many years working in children’s social care, including life story and memory work with looked-after children and their families. That background shapes how I work today — I know that trust takes time to build, and that everyone’s story deserves to be heard with patience and without judgement.
Life story work is slow, careful work. You’re helping someone piece together a narrative about who they are and where they’ve come from — often including parts of their story that are painful, confusing, or incomplete. You can’t rush that. You can’t force insight. You have to earn the right to go there, one honest, reliable interaction at a time.
I bring that same pacing into the therapy room. I don’t expect a client to open up in week one because we’ve agreed on a fifty-minute slot. Safety is built through consistency — turning up, listening properly, not flinching from what’s hard to hear, and following through on what I say I’ll do.
My approach is person-centred at its core, but I also draw on CBT, ACT, IFS, and narrative approaches where they’re helpful — because no two people, or two stories, are quite the same.
I offer both in-room and walk and talk sessions, for anyone who’d rather process things while moving through the outdoors than sitting across from me in a chair.
Whatever has brought you here, I hope you’ll find a steady, honest space to work things through — at your own pace, in your own time.
