Antonia Edie Counselling (MBACP)

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, family issues, feeling sad, low self-confidence, low self-esteem, panic attacks, or relationship issues? We can work through this together, and you can start feeling differently very soon.

I am a passionate, experienced, and qualified integrative counsellor working remotely and in Plymouth, Devon. I use a few different counselling approaches and will flex and bend how I work depending on what you bring into our sessions.

I have been practicing as a counsellor for several years and have a background in supporting people with "everyday" problems as well as those living with enduring mental health difficulties.

What I can offer you

• Free initial, no-obligation 20-minute chat to find out more about each other

We will explore whatever you choose to share and, together, gain some insight and clarity. I offer a safe, calm, open, and compassionate space with no judgement about what we discuss.

Where we have trust, openness, and a strong human connection, we can gain some understanding of what is troubling us and look at how we might like to feel differently. We'll work at your pace and explore whatever you choose to bring; it is your therapy.

What to expect from counselling

Each session lasts 50 minutes, and we meet weekly.  ​For some people 6 - 12 sessions is all they need. For others who wish to explore more, counselling can continue for up to a year or more.

In our first session, I'll find out a bit more about you. I will ask you a few questions about your personal circumstances, and we will talk about confidentiality, recap the frequency and cost of the sessions, and make sure we're both clear on how the therapy is going to work.

Then we start by discussing whatever you want to share about why you decided to see a counsellor. You don't have to give your whole life history in one go; we go at your pace and only discuss whatever you are comfortable with.

What we talk about in counselling

It doesn't matter if you don't know where to start. As your therapist, it is my job to help you find your way, and we may start by looking at how you're feeling in the here and now. This is a great way to begin therapy and often leads us to why you decided to see a therapist and what's happened in your life up to this point.

​For some people, the first sessions is all about offloading everything on their mind, and that is also OK. ​There is no set agenda or script we need to follow; we'll follow whatever feels natural and comfortable in the moment.

How to get started

Give me a call on 07949846895 to arrange a free 20-minute chat.

We can find out a little bit about each other, and you can ask any questions you may have about me or the counselling process. We'll discuss timing, price, confidentiality, etc., and then book our first therapy session at a time that suits us both.
