About Bethany Thornton Counselling

---

I am a qualified, experienced and BACP Accredited counsellor working in Stafford offering counselling for individuals or couples/relationships.
I work from a comfortable counselling room in my home, or I can offer telephone or online counselling. I offer a discounted rate for the first session so that you can make an informed decision about whether you would like to work with me.
I hold a Professional Diploma (DipHE) in Therapeutic Counselling, a British Psychological Society Approved Certificate in Third Wave Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and a COSRT Approved Certificate in Working with Couples and Other Relationships. I am a Registered and Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (Accreditation is a higher quality standard for more experienced members of the BACP) and adhere to their Ethical Framework for Good Practice. I have DBS Clearance and a Level 1 Certificate in Safeguarding Training for working with adults at risk.

I offer Person-Centred Counselling and provide an emotionally supportive, non-judgemental and compassionate environment, where you can feel safe to talk openly about what is concerning you. Through careful listening, reflection and professional insight I will support you in exploring the different aspects of the problems you’re facing, so that you can gain clarity in what is happening in your life, heal from any past hurts and find a way to move forward.
I also have knowledge and experience of using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Transactional Analysis and can integrate this within the counselling session if we both agree that it will be helpful.

Depression.
Anxiety.
Stress.
Work-Related Stress.
Panic.
Anger.
Low self-esteem.
