HIDE MENUElizabeth Sumner
Integrative Counsellor and Supervisor
I am a BACP (Accredited) Integrative Counsellor with 18 years' experience of private practice. I am also a qualified Supervisor and Trainer and Senior Lecturer in Counselling and Psychotherapy. My work is Integrative, with a foundation of person centred and an integration of both Transactional Analysis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I believe in creating a strong, therapeutic relationship with my clients, offering a safe environment for my clients to explore their feelings and talk through their presenting problems.
When I work, I am real and spontaneous, with a sense of warmth and humour. I allow clients to work at their own pace, whilst encouraging positive change and giving the client the tools to see things in a different way.
There is a fee for the initial consultation session, but there is no obligation to continue as we need to decide mutually if we can work together. It is a good opportunity to think about what you want from therapy and to raise any questions or concerns you have about the process. I am available for sessions on a Tuesday 9.15am to 5.00pm. Please note, I work with clients aged 21years+ on a one-to-one basis. I am also BUPA approved.
I am a supervisor with 15 years’ experience of supervising one to one and in a group setting, and am available to trainee and qualified counsellors, plus to those in any allied profession.
