Beauty for ashes

About

'Beauty for Ashes Therapy' is based in Harrogate  – the mineral rich waters of Harrogate were discovered in the 16th century and were sought out as a source of healing and replenishment. I believe that counselling can be an important step towards healing in many people’s lives.

ABOUT ME

I am a qualified relational counsellor with an Advanced Diploma in Counselling and a member of BACP and the Associating of Christian Counsellors (ACC). I offer a confidential and ethical service for people from all walks of life; regardless of faith, background or presenting issue.  I work in a practical, down-to-earth way to find a better way forward for you, in a supportive, warm and safe atmosphere.
