Zinnia Wilkinson

Integrative Counsellor – MNCPS (Acc)

Person-centred counselling for children and adults
I provide a safe, non-judgemental space where clients of any age can explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences at a comfortable pace.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, stress, low mood, relationship difficulties, loss, or simply feeling stuck, I work alongside you to help you gain greater understanding, resilience, and clarity.

My approach is compassionate and supportive. My aim is that over time, being heard, valued, and empowered will enable you to effect positive change in your life.

Who am I?
Following 30 years in education, originally as a teacher and latterly in a safeguarding and pastoral role, I studied to become an integrative therapist.

My training included working with different age groups and took a primarily humanistic approach. I studied psychodynamic theory, cognitive behaviour therapy, hypnotherapy, mental health conditions, suicide prevention, anxiety, bereavement, relationships, safeguarding and more.  

I have worked with clients of all ages and particularly enjoy listening to, supporting and mentoring those who find a relational approach helpful. I am a highly confidential, reliable and empathetic individual with lived experience of grief, parenting, divorce and redundancy. I am looking forward to meeting you and to supporting your journey of healing.
