About Joyce Howitt
I started counselling in 1996 and in addition to many years experience in private practice I have counselled in a GP surgery and in various agencies including 15 years working with bereaved clients and 8 years working with clients who had been abused in childhood or adulthood.
I can offer both short and long term therapy and use an integrated approach in Counselling based on the individual’s needs. As such I use a range of different theoretical approaches including Person Centred, Psychodynamic, CBT, Transactional Analysis and NLP.
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor and am listed on the BACP Register of Counsellors. I am also an Accredited Counsellor and Supervisor with ACC and an Associate Member of the Association for Coaching. My work is carried out in accordance with the Ethical Guidelines and Practice of both BACP and ACC. I receive regular supervision both for my Counselling and for the Supervision which I give to my supervisees.

I am also a qualified, experienced Supervisor of Counsellors including those in training. I regard Supervision as a collegial relationship between the supervisor and the counsellor where the supervisor, contrary to the image of the ‘work place supervisor is a mentor and guide rather than an "overseer". Through encouragement, support, affirmation and challenge together we monitor and evaluate the counselling process and if appropriate I may try to help you to find new ways of looking at yourself and your client to enable you to work more effectively with that client.
