About Us

Our Counsellors, Sarah Cox and Sue Burton, are two highly qualified counsellors, both having received a Hull University BA Honours degree at Grimsby Institute and are both Members of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy. In addition to this, they also hold a Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

 Our Highly qualified Counsellors work by using the core model of Person Centred Counselling and integrating skills from other therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt and Behavioural Therapies.

The aim of counselling is to give you the opportunity to explore your concerns and feelings, discovering what might be the underlying causes, to clarify ways of living more effectively and to move towards a greater sense of well being.

Our approach to counselling is Person Centred and we abide by the code of Ethics and Practise for counselling for the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Counselling can be the opportunity to think the unthinkable, speak the unspeakable without the fear of what others might think. The essence of offering the Core Conditions of empathy, Congruence and unconditional positive regard in such a supportive environment may well enable clients to feel a strong and deep connection, thus affording an unusual, unique safety and freedom to face their deepest and most profound emotions.

Person Centred Therapy is a non directive therapy that offers the core conditions of empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard. This therapy offers understanding of complexity and richness of human life experience. Counselling aims to offer empathy and a non judgemental understanding of clients extreme psychological pain and distress.
