Zoe Gadhavi
MBACP Dip Therapeutic Counselling
About me
My training and philosophy are grounded in the person-centred mode of counselling – the thinking being that when given the right conditions individuals will have a tendency to work towards fulfilling their potential.
I am experienced in enabling this process through exploration of thoughts and feelings, challenging safely and appropriately so that a deeper understanding of who we are, our behaviours and triggers, can be gained. This exploration and insight can help build confidence, strengthen self-esteem and lessen anxiety. As a result, children can find themselves in a better place to engage within the classroom, impacting positively on educational attainment.
I strive to work empathically and without judgement believing that offering these conditions allows the child to feel safe, valued and heard; and that who they are matters.
I work from a non-directive approach, supporting the child to better understand themselves and their self-concept.
I am a member of the BACP and as such adhere to their ethical framework.
