Sherrie Root
About me
I am an Integrative Counsellor that offers support to those that feel that life has got too much or is feeling overwhelmed, stressed, sad, worried or lonely. I can help you deal with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, childhood trauma, ill health, low self-esteem and other issues.
If you have experiences in your life that you feel you need to process, or take the time to explore in your own time & at your own pace, then I’m here to help & support you through your journey.
I offer remote, telephone counselling sessions that can suit & fit into your lifestyle.
Our sessions are your time & space to explore & get to know the real you without judgement or pressure. Compassion, empathy, respect and patience are at the heart of my approach allowing my clients the opportunity to be themselves and to find their inner strength and resilience to achieve their goals.
Gaining self-awareness allows us to understand how we behave and how our past experiences affect who we are today. Exploring how & why we think and feel can help us understand our worries, fears and behaviours, enabling us to gain our own self-awareness and confidence utilising the skills & coping tools & strategies we learn through the therapeutic relationship, to deal with the future challenges life throws at us.

So far, I had only one session with Sherrie and I can already notice a difference. She’s made me feel at ease from the beginning, offered me practical tips, etc. even after just one session I had an immense sense of relief and confidence that with her help, I can tackle my issues.
