Miss Kerry Griggs

Counselor

“Qualified Person Centred Counsellor working with adults. I have experience in helping clients with anxiety, depression, family conflicts, loneliness, coping with grief, lack of self esteem and confidence and dealing with life changes. I offer a warm non judgmental space to listen and support you.”

About Me

As a qualified Person Centred Counsellor, I support adults navigating life's complexities. When anxiety, grief, or self-esteem issues feel overwhelming, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space. Here, you can share openly, knowing you'll be truly heard. We will explore feelings, build confidence, and find ways forward together. If you are dealing with family conflicts, loneliness, or significant life changes, you will find a compassionate and supportive environment.

Approach

When life feels heavy and isolating, I help you notice small shifts in feeling and choice and focus on what matters most. In sessions, whether in Frome or online in English, we move at your pace, pausing to reflect, name patterns and try brief grounding or mindfulness practices between meetings. I listen closely, mirror what I hear and offer gentle questions or simple tools informed by person‑centred and trauma-aware thinking to make sense of anxiety, grief or relationship pain. This approach suits those seeking steady, practical exploration and small sustainable change.
