VALERIE J BUCKNALL MA UKCP

Psychoanalytical Psychotherapist

For details of psychotherapy and counselling in Teesdale, and/or online, please
email
or phone 01833 650866.

I am registered with the UK Council for Psychotherapy.

I offer short-term, person-centred counselling, or attachment-based, psychoanalytical psychotherapy.

Sessions usually cost Ł40; face to face sessions are paid for in the last session of the month, online sessions monthly in advance. There are a few low-cost places available.

Counselling (one to six sessions) will not normally deal with unconscious issues from childhood, but will focus on immediate, current difficulties, and seek to define and resolve them.

Psychotherapy (a few months to several years) deals with the unconscious:

Psychoanalytical: by paying attention to memories, dreams, and our ways of relating to others, we are able to understand how past experiences have affected our life without our having been aware of the fact.
Attachment-based: attachment theory concerns a person's earliest relationships with his or her parents or carers. These formative experiences can have a profound effect on the way we make attachments later in life.
Relational: therapy is a conversation in a boundaried, ethical relationship in a contained situation.
