NIGEL JONES COUNSELLING
Creating a safe space for growth and transformation
COUNSELLING AND THERAPY FOR INDIVIDUALS IN SOUTH DEVON
Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website.
Hi, I'm Nigel. I decided to become a counsellor quite late in life. I saw how counselling had helped a friend of mine, move from a difficult time in their life and had lost trust in their own judgement, to a place of self confidence and happiness. Seeing this change in a friend made me decide to train to become a counsellor.
I work with people from all walks of life and backgrounds, coming to me with a diverse range of problems. As a fully-qualified counsellor I am a member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Therapy (NCPS) and abide by their code of ethics.
Making the decision to see a counsellor is a big step to take - but it can be a positive one. Please read on to find out more about how I could help you.
WORKING WITH ME
Counselling is not about me telling you what you need to do but for me to listen to you without judgement and with empathy. I will help you unravel your thoughts and emotions, helping you to find your way through to a better place.
If you are usure who you might feel is the right person to work with, please feel free to give me a call on 07918 050934 and we can have a chat about what's brought you to counselling and you can decide if you feel we could work together.
People come to me for help a wide range of issues. Here are a few of the more common difficulties that can be supported through counselling:
Feelings of stress or anxiety
Relationship problems
Grief, loss or bereavement
Trauma
Abuse
Depression
Problems with confidence or self-esteem
Difficulties at work
Issues relating to boarding school
Difficulties in retirement
SPEAK IN CONFIDENCE
Counselling takes place in a safe space, where you can meet with someone who will listen with sensitivity and empathy - and without judgement. In the therapy space thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and in confidence.
A PROBLEM SHARED...
Trouble with a relationship; anxiety or panic attacks; mood swings or depression - many people face difficulties in their everyday lives that can be hard to get on top of. Counselling gives us a set of tools we can use to help gain a better understanding of what’s causing these problems - and how you can move towards managing or resolving them.
MAKE BETTER, HEALTHIER NEW CHOICES
Working together I can help you gain greater insight into the difficulties you are facing, help you understand why you act or react to them the way you do, and see how you can start to make better, heathier choices moving forward.

YOU MAY NOT KNOW IT, BUT YOU’VE ALREADY TAKEN THE FIRST STEP...
It can be scary and confusing making the decision to contact a counsellor or therapist, but in my experience people will struggle with a mental health issue, a personal crisis or problems with a relationship for much longer than is healthy. Sometimes a friend has proved a source of comfort, but this help can only go so far. Realising that resolving a problem requires something more means you have actually already taken the first step towards improving your life.
