HELLO, I'm Polly!

 I'm a BACP accredited Psychotherapist and Counsellor and registered counsellor/member of COSCA, adhering to their ethical framework and the highest of confidentiality standards.


Discovering an inner sense of peace and finding ways to better cope with emotions, feelings and your way of being is achievable. This can happen through empathic, non-judgemental support, working through any personal worries in a safe, and accepting relationship. It can be difficult to talk to someone, my aim is to make it as comfortable and inviting as possible for you to experience being truly heard and for me to understand things from your perspective.



I work with adults, children, and young people who may experience issues such as, anxiety, depression or a type of abuse. I have worked in this field since 2014 making a change from the oil and gas sector as a previous Network Engineer to follow my passion to support others who feel they need mental health care.


As a counsellor, I have worked with many charitable organisations in the North East. Specialising in those affected by Cancer, bereavement work, and working with children and young people with neurodiverse difficulties. I have spent many years volunteering for an equality agency supporting those adversely affected by discrimination or prejudice. I also have experience, of working in the University sector, both as a University Student Counsellor and Tutor.
