More about Melanie
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
Are you thinking "Why me?" Are you feeling alone and vulnerable and want to talk to someone, but do not want to burden your friends and family? Then look no further. I am here to listen and 'sit with you.'
I am a member of the BACP in the United Kingdom with 7 years experience in counselling, having worked within the NHS for over 20 years, where I trained as a Radiotherapist, worked in cancer care and Talking Therapy.
My main areas are in helping clients with loss and bereavement, pet grief, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, (including couples therapy), motivation, self esteem, confidence and depression.
At present I am working in a charity, which offers counselling in a number of areas including the cost of living problems.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
I use the Person Centred Technique, Cognitive Behavioural Techniques and Transactional Analysis in order to help you to find the best way forward.
I realise that it takes courage to reach out, but I believe every person has the power within them to find a happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to meeting you and starting the journey together.
If you are unable to find a suitable session time, please contact me and I will do my best to find a mutually convenient time.
Thank you for reading this.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
