Hi, I'm Nettie and welcome to my practice called My Safe Space Therapy. I'm a fully qualified psycho-therapeutic counsellor with over 9 years experience. I'm a trauma-informed counsellor and I work in an integrative way. Based on my clients' needs, I draw on different counselling theories, such as humanistic, psychodynamic and CBT (and its derivatives). I may also do inner child work, use sand play and props, eg stones and shells, Playdoh and other sensory toys to help the client. I'm a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy and I abide by its Ethical Framework for Counselling Professionals.

You don't have to struggle on your own - I can support you to make positive changes, build resilience and achieve personal growth. My experience is that counselling can assist us with the problems we encounter in life and can help us overcome self-destructive attitudes and behaviour. I will provide you with a comfortable, safe and confidential space where your thoughts and feelings can be explored and worked through. This talking therapy helps my clients to find a more constructive way of living and a stronger sense of inner fulfillment. Counselling can be either short or long term to fit in with your needs.

Are you feeling anxious, angry or unappreciated? Perhaps your mood has been low for a while and you can’t seem to shift that feeling. Sometimes life events such as trauma, loss, abuse, family problems or work issues can leave us feeling helpless. Perhaps you are considering help to untangle your thoughts. Maybe you think a lot about things that have happened in the past that still affect you. Sometimes there may be a sense that life is lacking in meaning and direction. We can all lose sight of who we really are and what we want from life
