I offer a free initial 20 minute consultation which enables us to see if we feel comfortable working together and to ensure I am the right counsellor for you.
I provide either Face to Face, Skype/Doxy.me/Teams video conferencing or telephone counselling. I also offer Equine assisted therapy and Equine facilitated interactions under the name of Mindful Lily.
Marie Potter Counselling
Face to Face Probably the most familiar way to receive therapy face to face counselling takes place in my office situated in Zeals. We meet for 50 minutes usually once a week. It is a comfortable, confidential and safe space in which to explore your feelings and anything else you feel therapy may help you with.
Skype/Doxy.me/Teams Video Conferencing Relatively new and innovative, video conferencing is a convenient and effective way to access therapy. Enabling you stay in the comfort and privacy of your own home or chosen location it avoids weekly travel and provides the potential to access therapy if you are away from home or are visiting or live in another country. It is also useful if you struggle with health issues, mobility or confidence to attend face to face sessions. Skype/Doxy.me/Teams can be offered to face to face clients who are unable to attend their normal face to face session.
Telephone Telephone counselling is another convenient and efficient way to engage in therapy. Providing you can access a telephone it will enable you to engage in therapy with me from a distance. Telephone counselling can be offered to face to face or skype clients who are unable to attend their normal session.
I offer concessions for those on low income and am happy to discuss this with you.
Mindful Lily - Equine Assisted Sessions
Under the moniker of Mindful Lily I offer Equine Assisted Therapy and Equine Facilitated Interactions.
Equine Therapy is a formal counselling session with the addition of a pony being used within the therapeutic process. Sessions are provided in collaboration with Stoke Lane Stables, Bayford. I can also come and visit you and your horse privately subject to consultation.
Equine Facilitated Interactions is a therapeutic approach to personal growth through calm, positive interactions with horses that can benefit physical and mental health, emotional resilience and confidence and help reduce stress, anxiety and depression. I offer a full range of equine interactions including general equine experiences, mindful equine walks and group activities in collaboration with Stoke Lane Stables, Bayford. I can also come and visit you and your horse privately subject to consultation.
