WELCOME
We are qualified psychotherapists and counsellors in Bishop's Stortford working with clients locally and from the surrounding areas.
At Shared Space Counselling, we believe that everyone has the potential to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. Many things bring people to counselling from childhood trauma, relationship difficulties, unmet needs and goals, bereavement, sudden traumatic events, anxiety, stress, imposter syndrome, or the feeling that everything is getting too much and overwhelm and burn out are not far away. We help our clients by offering a calm, non-judgemental space where they can really feel heard. Step by step, we will work with you.
Do you need to talk? We are here to listen.

As a general Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, based in Bishop's Stortford, I work with clients facing a wide array of issues.
Do you feel like you're not coping? Do you find yourself repeating the same patterns of behaviour? Does it feel like just one more thing may happen, and all the wheels will fall off? Do you look at yourself and not recognise who you are right now, and wonder where the person you used to be has gone? Are you like a swan on the outside, but underneath the surface, there's a lot of panic and stress? Do you come across as the confident, capable one, but feel you're going to be found out as anything but? Are you struggling with the loss of a loved one, a friend, a relationship or career? Is your grief more complicated than you thought it would be? Are you a neuro-diverse person and struggling to process that? Are you the parent of a SEND child and feeling overwhelmed?
I can offer you a Shared Space that is empathetic, non-judgemental, where you can speak freely. Together, I can help you process what is going on for you, going at your pace to discover whatever comes next.

I’m a qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor offering counselling services in Bishop's Stortford and the surrounding area. Are you feeling anxious? Do you need someone you can really talk to? Is your relationship not going how you imagined? Are you ending a relationship and cannot believe you are in this situation again? Are you feeling worried about your family and loved ones? Have you suffered a loss and cannot seem to move on? Do you feel like you're spinning too many plates? Do you take on the problems of everyone around you and there's nothing left in the tank for you? Are you angry, and lashing out and you just don't know why? Do you wish there was a toolbox of things that could just change the way you're thinking right now? Do you put everyone else's needs before your own? Do you deflect personal questions because there's just too much pain there?
At Shared Space Counselling, I can help you by giving you a space where you can really speak your mind, where there's no judgement, just time and space and empathy. Together, we can find a way forward that helps you towards the future you really want.

Services
We offer a bespoke Counselling and Psychotherapy service in Bishop's Stortford and the surrounding area, tailored to your needs and the changes you wish to see in your life. Utilizing a range of techniques rooted in pluralistic therapy, somatic nervous system work, and breath work, we offer a free 15 minute telephone conversation.
Sessions are within a 1 hour booking, usually finishing after about 50-55 minutes. We will begin our work with an
Initial Consultation where we will discuss your hopes for therapy and the goals you may be aiming for. As integrative therapists, we work collaboratively with you to develop a personalized therapy plan that ensures you are fully comfortable with the route ahead. No two therapy plans are the same, and we will review the duration of the plan together as we progress in our work.
We are proud members of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and adhere to their code of ethics. Regular supervision with a qualified supervisor ensures we maintain best ethical practices.
