JENNIFER CHIVERS PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELLING

I provide one to one talking therapy and counselling in and around Windsor, Berkshire. Sessions last for 50 minutes and are usually held once a week at the same time. I offer an initial meeting where we can have an open discussion about your needs and I can answer any questions that you might have. If we would like to continue to work together then we will organise a regular time to meet and decide on the right therapeutic plan for you.

I have recently completed the training portion of the Diploma in Supervision at the Gestalt Centre and am accruing hours with supervisees as I work towards the full qualification for UKCP supervisor accreditation. I am offering sessions at a discounted rate during this time. I have a particular interest, training and experience with eating disorders and trauma and like to work collaboratively and creatively where appropriate.

My focus in my client work and with supervisees is on the relationship, I feel it can provide a real time 'petri dish' of insight in to one's inner world and how someone may be presenting outside of therapy. I take a curious and compassionate approach to what arises in supervision so we can explore and experiment together, in the hope you will feel able to bring the things that may feel awkward, difficult or taboo to talk about. I also believe supervision should allow space for some personal issues when they arise in the professional work, and whilst it is not therapy, supervision needs to support you as our work asks us to bring so much of ourselves and this can be challenging.

I adhere to the BACP and UKCP ethical framework and would like to support you in reflecting on your practice, developing new skills and integrating theory in to practice. I work with qualified psychotherapists and counsellors, along with trainees where suitable for your governing or training body.
