Jones

FdSc Counselling MBACP (Accredited)

I trust in the human capacity for growth and care deeply about improving mental wellbeing, offering a warm and compassionate approach. Just as plants have a core strength enabling them to withstand adverse conditions, we can learn to access our own inner resources when life is challenging. I aim to make a positive difference by helping you gain insight and strengthen your inner resources and resilience. Guided by your individual needs, I can help you explore your experiences, gain clarity and develop healthy coping strategies to manage whatever difficulties you may face.

About Me

Integrative Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy & Person-Centred Therapy for Adults.

My name is Alison Jones and I provide counselling to adults offering a flexible, individualised approach. I am an Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, which means that I am recognised by the BACP as a counsellor with a high standard of knowledge, experience and development.

 

For over 10 years I have provided counselling within the Higher Education sector to a diverse population of students and staff presenting with a variety of issues. Other experience includes working for charities such as Cruse Bereavement Care and Safeline; supporting people who have experienced bereavement and adult survivors of sexual abuse.

 

The BACP Ethical framework for the Counselling Professions underpins my work to ensure I provide safe and professional support. More information about this and the counselling process may be found at www.bacp.co.uk

 

It is important to me to offer best practice and I regularly attend  Continued Professional Development to expand my knowledge and skills. 

 

I am fully insured, and all of my work is clinically monitored. I also hold an enhanced DBS certificate.

 "From the outset you came across in a way that made me feel totally at ease from that very first phone call to my final session. This has truly been one of the most valuable and rewarding experiences and one of the best decisions I’ve made, and I feel like I have got myself back but
with more self-awareness and insight into others and their reactions and the way we
interact and communicate."
