Meet Annabel
I’m the counsellor behind Held with Care. I offer a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and supported.
Whether you are struggling in relationships, noticing patterns in closeness and trust, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday demands, we can explore what matters to you at your own pace.
My approach
Person-centred counselling is based on the belief that you are the expert of your own experiences. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.
Through empathy, acceptance and understanding, we can work towards greater self-awareness and personal growth, in a way that feels right for you.
My experience
I have supported adults within counselling and therapeutic settings, exploring relationships, self-esteem, identity, difficult emotions and life transitions. These experiences have shaped my compassionate, person-centred way of working, where each individual is valued and respected.
