About Sandra Weir BA (Hons), PGDip, MBACP (Accred). Counsellor
About me
I am a BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) Accredited Counsellor working in private practice. I counsel private clients and also work part-time for Employee Assistance Schemes. I work relationaly. I believe the key to successful counselling is a co-creation of the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client.
I work within the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions and am committed to continuing professional development.
I have a current DBS check and hold professional indemnity insurance.
I mainly counsel clients with the following issues:
Workplace Stress and Depression
The NHS and NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) recommend ‘Talking Treatments’ for Stress and Depression. My integrative approach to counselling means that I would have recourse to talking therapies including CBT ( Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and would use the most appropriate method for you.
Generalised Anxiety and Panic Disorder
I am an Anxiety UK Approved and NICE qualified Counsellor.
Employee Assistance Programmes
Being employed by companies involved in these schemes, has enabled me to counsel employees from various organisations including Tesco, the Post Office and the University of York. I work for several EAP schemes and have the following official designations:
- BUPA Approved Psychotherapist
- Anxiety UK Approved Therapist
- Psychotherapist on the Private Practice Register
- Affiliate Counsellor for Lifeworks
Other Areas
I counsel in a range of other areas. Please email me to enquire further. My other main areas of expertise in addition to depression, anxiety, panic disorder and workplace stress include counselling clients with relationship issues, bereavement and loss.
I am also experienced in counselling young people in colleges and universities. My most recent role from 2014 to 2017 was Counselling Manager at Selby College.
Location
Therapy sessions take place in a designated private counselling room in an extension at the rear of my property in Woodthorpe, York.
