Heather Beveridge, BACP, NCPS

Heather Beveridge is an inclusive, non-judgemental counsellor who aims to help people feel empowered and find greater wellbeing through lasting change. She approaches each person with empathy and respect, believing that individuals are the experts on their own lives and that therapy should be tailored to fit each person's needs.

Her background spans roles across psychology and social care, including work as a lecturer and practical experience as a social worker, mental health worker, SEN teaching assistant, and counsellor. She has supported children, young people, and adults in a variety of settings, bringing a breadth of experience to her practice.

Heather works as an integrative counsellor with a person-centred foundation, combining techniques from several therapeutic models such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), family systems therapy, and psychodynamic therapy so the work matches the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method. She is registered with BACP and NCPS, which indicate professional registration and training in counselling and psychotherapy.

Heather has worked with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, attachment difficulties, phobias, addiction, autism, ADHD, trauma and loss, domestic violence and sexual abuse, relationship problems, OCD, eating disorders, diversity and gender related issues, and gender dysphoria. She believes everyone deserves a positive, fulfilled life and hopes that by taking the step to ask for help, clients and she can work together toward meaningful change.
