Danielle Chapman Art Therapy and Counselling
I decided a couple of years ago that I wanted to do more, be more, and I have always been a natural listener and a sounding board to my friends and family. Becoming a Counsellor seemed like a natural step for me. While studying I found that to me it came naturally. I practiced my new skills every chance I got. Attending practice sessions at my college and volunteering as much as I could. I found that due to my life experiences I was able empathise with others and what they were going through.
I have since learnt alot of different therapy styles, specialising in Mindfulness and Emotion Focused Therapy but able to use Gestalt, CBT and Solution Focused as well. Therefore I go into a session with an open mind and using only what helps and what you are comfortable with. Explaining the process as we go.
I have experience with One-on-One Counselling, Couple’s Therapy and Group Debriefing. I also have experience in the Disability Sector having a daughter that has a physical disability and having helped alot of other parents and carer’s through similar circumstances, along with volunteering at Carer’s Foundation.
I will listen to you, and support you to make changes that you want to make. I’m here for you.
