Private therapist in Exeter. In person, online or walk-and-talk therapy in nature.

Welcome

charlotte ferns therapist in exeter devon

I believe in the transformative power of being truly heard and reaching greater understanding, with someone who meets you with kindness.

So whatever it is that brings you to therapy, I hope we will build a trusting relationship where you feel free to explore things openly together. We'll work together to understand more fully what's going on for you. I draw on contemporary theories, including: how our nervous systems are regulated, the relationship between mind and body, early development and how our wellbeing is interconnected with our identity, relationships, and the world around us.

I am especially pleased to offer walk-and-talk therapy in nature - this is a usual psychotherapy session but outdoors in a natural setting. Many clients find it easier to talk walking alongside one another, and supportive to be somewhere beautiful.

I really appreciate that starting therapy, or talking to a new therapist can be daunting. Please feel free to contact me for a free, no obligation initial conversation to find out more about whether therapy with me is for you.

Calm, empathetic, affirming & insightful.

I understand that it can be hard to find a therapist and starting with a new therapist can be daunting. I offer a free, no obligation 15 minutes initial conversation online.

Whilst not essential, I recommend that you speak with 2 - 3 therapists before you chose someone you feel comfortable with.

If you decide to work with me, we will begin sessions by going through an agreement together, talking about your history and what brings you to therapy, in a full-length session.
