Counselling With Chloe
I’m a person-centred therapist who is committed to helping you learn to accept yourself, overcome trauma, empowering you to reach your potential, build resilience and develop healthy relationships with yourself and others.
My work focuses on the therapeutic relationship, providing a space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe and confidential space. I work with young people (13yrs +) and adults.
I am based in Liverpool.
Therapies Offered
My approach to therapy is a humanistic one, I use my training and grounding in the Person-centred approach to deliver therapy tailored to you, because you are unique and therefore your therapy should reflect your needs. To do this I incorporate elements of other humanistic approaches I have received training in, including Bereavement counselling, trauma, Transactional analysis and Creative ways of working.
The therapy room is a place for you to explore, one in which I will facilitate a space for you to look at and understand yourself better. You may decide there are doors you want to open to explore your potential and what could be, or perhaps there are those rooms in your head which you have previously avoided but understand to be significant.
Therapy is place to be curious about your experience and your reactions without the noise and judgement of the outside world. This process takes time and patience and there are no “right amount of sessions” to have, we will discuss together what you might like in terms of frequency and if we have a fixed amount of appointments or keep things open ended.
About Me
I graduated from University in 2008 with a Psychology degree and a desire to deliver animal assisted therapy, however, it was not until some time later that I found my way to counselling. For me it was a lightbulb moment, a vocation that I had been searching for, for the first time I felt I was where I needed to be, no longer having to portray a character that I was not to survive in the corporate world. Finding out who you really are is incredibly empowering and an opportunity that everyone should have.

What to Expect From My First Therapy Session
Enquiry Call
First we will begin with a free enquiry call, this lasts about 15 minutes and gives us both the chance to introduce ourselves, I can learn a bit more about you and what you would like to achieve from therapy.
Decide Whether I'm the Right Fit
During our enquiry call, you can ask me any questions you may have and decide whether I am the right fit for you. The therapeutic relationship is key for counselling and it's important that you feel able to connect with your chosen counsellor.
Arrange an Appointment
Once we agree to work together we will arrange a mutually agreeable time to have our sessions, if there are no available slots appropriate to you, I will offer to add you to my waiting list until that time becomes available.
First Session
After Your Session
Having a plan for how to take care of yourself after your first session will help, for example taking a walk or having a warm drink can ground you and help bring you back into the here and now.

Frequently Asked Questions
I believe it is vitally important to be flexible and adapt to each individual: as well as being grounded in Person-centred therapy I am able to integrate interventions and perspectives from CBT and Transactional analysis. I also like to work creatively when appropriate, adapting to my client’s needs is the main focus of the therapy I offer.
After deciding to change careers I did much soul searching which ended in a return to my first passion, psychology. I decided that helping others with their mental health was definitely what I wanted to do, however I wanted to work holistically, away from diagnosis and medication. I therefore trained in a humanistic approach, focusing on the person as a whole rather than a collection of symptoms.
I believe it’s beneficial to be in touch with your own physical experience as well as your emotional one, unfortunately this is a connection many of us have lost with how busy our lives are. I can offer guided breathwork to help build that connection.
Some of the areas I can help you with include but are not limited to:
- Grief/Loss
- Depression/low mood
- Anxiety and social anxiety
- Sexual orientation/Gender identity
- Body image
- Relationships
- Work related stress
