Welcome

Sometimes life can be difficult and feel overwhelming. Counselling can provide a safe space for you to be able to talk through life’s problems with someone who is there to listen without judgement. By working together with a therapist, it can help you shed light on aspects of life that might seem confusing, it can help you feel less alone, build confidence and can help you make real changes in your life

"The most basic of all human needs is to understand and be understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them"

Ralph Nichols

About me and my approach

Counselling Stowmarket

My name is Vicky Godfrey. I am a qualified, integrative counsellor working with adults aged 18 and over. My practice is based at the Phoenix Centre in Stowmarket, Suffolk but I am also able to offer online counselling. I am a registered member with the BACP (British Association for Counselling Professionals) and I am bound by their Ethical Framework.

It can be very daunting, deciding to talk to somebody for the first time. I see it as my job to create a warm and supportive environment so that you feel comfortable to be able to share your problems or anxieties. It may be that you have experienced loss, are suffering from anxiety or depression, need to process difficult or traumatic past events, or are simply feeling stuck. I am there to listen, empathise and help you gain a deeper understanding and self-awareness.

Working integratively simply means that I can use a variety of counselling theories or approaches to our work together, ensuring that it isn't a one size fits all approach, but that it works best for you. Please visit my Services page to see how I can work with you and the life issues I have previously helped clients with.
