Alyson Marlor – Counselling & Psychotherapy
Hello and welcome to my website.
I am really glad you found me and I hope you will be too. My name is Alyson and I am a private counsellor/psychotherapist in Keynsham. I work with adults in one to one counselling either in person, via Zoom or on the telephone.
I can work with you to explore a range of issues personal and work-related. Are you at a crossroads and don’t know where to turn? I believe that many issues we struggle with stem from a loss. Are any of the following losses affecting your life?
- Bereavement
- Infant Loss through miscarriage, termination, stillbirth, neonatal loss, sudden infant death or accidental death.
- Anticipatory bereavement
- Loss of a relationship
- Infertility
- Loss of safety
- Loss of trust
- Loss of approval
- Loss of control
- Loss of health, ability, independence
- Loss of job, career, income, status, responsibility, position
- Loss of opportunity
- Loss of a dream
- Loss of what you wanted but never had
Do you feel:
- Depressed
- Anxious
- Sad
- Overwhelmed
- Angry
- Irritable
- Frustrated
- Misunderstood
- Fearful
- Trapped
- Numb
- Ambivalent
- Guilty
- Remorseful
- Unmotivated
- Lacking energy
- As if you want to escape
I am a warmly relational, client-led counsellor/psychotherapist. This means I believe the therapeutic relationship we build together is the base from which we can explore your needs, problems and aspirations to enable you to find your way forward. I am passionate about counselling – you matter and you are allowed to change.
My approach is integrative; I use a range of theoretical models and approaches to respond to your needs. These include; Person Centred, Psychodynamic and Gestalt.
What are my qualifications?
I am a fully qualified professional counsellor/psychotherapist. I hold a Diploma in Professional Studies: Counselling from the University of the West of England. I am a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) which is an assurance that I meet the standards of proficiency and ethical practice expected. I work in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework and receive regular professional supervision. I also qualified with Cruse as a bereavement and loss volunteer and have received specialist Infant Loss training. I have a B.Ed. (hons) degree with over 30 years teaching experience. I hold professional liability insurance.
