ABOUT ANGELA TERRIS

Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (ADv.Dip.PsyCs and Dip.Hyp.Cs.)

Talking therapies are a normal and healthy way of helping yourself.

I'm a professional Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with over 12 years of experience helping people overcome adversity to increase their happiness, boost confidence, find purpose, and enhance overall wellbeing.

The Thrive Approach integrates the most effective helping techniques that are proven to improve specific problems, including counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and solution-focused brief therapy. 

This approach helps you to identify and overcome the challenges you’re facing in your life, leading you to create the kind of life you hope for. 

Therapy can be an incredibly valuable experience providing you with clarity and a sense of feeling heard, supported, and understood by a professional who is dedicated to helping you navigate the challenges you may face.

I aim to create effective change in people's lives in a positive, uplifting way that focuses not on what you can't do, but on what you can do.

You will find:

  • I won't diagnose you or focus sessions purely on your past

  • I will focus on what you want instead, rather than what you want to leave behind

  • I will guide you through the gap from where you are to where you ideally want to be

  • I will support you in getting back on your feet as quickly as possible

  • I will listen respectfully to your life story

I am co-author of three published books including Inside Creativity Coaching (Routledge) and The Creativity Workbook for Coaches and Creatives (Routledge).

Also, self-published as author and illustrator of Mindfulness for Peace of Mind - a practical guide to finding your inner calm.
