ABOUT - Angela Burgess (MBACP)


I am a fully qualified counsellor, psychotherapist and supervisor. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (381028) adhering to the BACP’s stringent code of ethics.


I am psychodynamically trained, which means I will explore with you the root cause of any issues rather than just the symptoms.

I hold an enhanced DBS check, I am fully insured and in regular, ongoing supervision.


Ears & Empathy, not Tea & Sympathy.


We all experience emotional or psychological difficulties at some point in our lives and counselling is a way for you and a trained therapist to collaborate and find a way to navigate through these times.

It can also be a journey of self discovery which will enable you to gain insight and empower you to have choice over your responses

This is done in a professional and boundaried way, in a safe and secure space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions.

There certainly won't be any tea and sympathy, but I can guarantee ears and empathy and a sometimes challenging, yet very rewarding process.
