Hi, thank you for checking out my profile. I believe that the client/counsellor relationship is paramount toward successful change. So making sure that you have a look around to get a sense of myself, and indeed other therapists before choosing, is, I think, hugely important.
I am a person-centred counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Being a member of the BACP means that I adhere to their Ethical Framework, undergo regular supervision, and am committed to continued professional development, which is something very important to me.
My style of counselling adopts the underpinning values of person-centred counselling - putting you at the centre of all that we do, ensuring that you have an inviting space to discuss any topics that you wish. I further tailor my approach to the individual to try and best fit your needs. This may include checking out alternative ways of thinking, hypothesising, and tentative challenges to outlooks/mindsets, where appropriate to encourage looking inward to self when needed.
My space is always free from judgement, whilst offering empathetic understanding and working collaboratively to explore your feelings, beliefs and behaviours. In doing so, this should increase greater self-awareness and autonomy.
Over the years I have worked with a hugely diverse group of people, with differing age ranges (right from teens up til post-retirement), ethnic and cultural backgrounds, gender, and sexual identities. Everyone is welcome.
I have helped clients with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety & panic attacks, health concerns, grief, domestic abuse, rape, historical childhood trauma and family issues. I have also worked largely with struggles surrounding relationship difficulties, life changes, whether that be relational, location/career/university, and with members of LGBTQI+ surrounding sexuality, gender identity and self-worth.
I very much want the best and for people to take away as much as they can from counselling and so take the approach that no topic is off the table, but will signpost people elsewhere when it may feel more appropriate and within your best interest to do so.

First time having a therapist and it’s been very easy and helpful

My therapist listens and guides me through the issues that I’m going through. A great listener and knows places to point me in the right direction for support

I feel truly seen and understood in our sessions. She doesn’t just listen to what I say, but she also pick up on what’s beneath the surface. Through her sharp insight and attention to detail, she makes thoughtful connections based on what I share, even things I haven’t fully expressed yet. She gently guide me toward realisations about myself, and her suggestions and tools have been incredibly helpful for me. I deeply appreciate the safe, supportive space she creates.

Straight up, Bethany is the best therapist I've ever had. I've been in therapy for over 10 years as well. She challenges me, understands me and has helped me grow so much.

Bethany is very good with people, she listens very well and adapts her therapy session to support the needs of the client. I asked her to challenge me and suggest strategies that could help me and she has done a great job in this.
She's a charming person... full of warmth and empathy and has excellent therapy skills.
