My Training
I am a Psychotherapist with full clinical membership of The UK Council for Psychotherapy. (Helen Travis-McGhee MA Dip HIP). I studied a Research Masters Degree for seven years with Bath Centre for Psychotherapy and Counselling a leading teaching institute, providing me with a very in-depth training.
During my training I was required to attend weekly therapy sessions myself. This gave me a full insight into what it is like to be a client. The length and depth of training allowed me to build extensive experience of working with clients, along with a deep understanding of approaches which are effective in supporting change in our lives.
I continue to add to my expertise as a psychotherapist through ongoing therapy training and I adhere to the code of ethics and practice as set out by UKCP.
My Background
I have been a practising Somerset psychotherapist/counsellor for over ten years and have also worked for the counselling department of The University of the West of England. Whilst counselling I developed a broad range of experience which provided an important foundation for the work I do now.
My past experience includes supporting the activity team at Bristol Children's Hospital and working in other health and educational settings including early years education. I also have a background interest in art, wildlife and nature and their therapeutic value in our lives.
For more information contact me at my psychotherapy/counselling practice by email (see home page) or by phone (see home page). I offer a free initial consultation meeting (in-person or online) where any concerns or questions can be considered. If you decide to go ahead with therapy we would meet once a week for fifty minutes at my psychotherapy practice near Wells in Somerset.
Sessions are £60.
