Garden Shed Counselling

Garden Shed Counselling My name is Jackie Brierley, I am a registered BACP accredited counsellor, based in Derby.

No matter what your age, we all need someone who will listen, but sometimes we need someone that not only listens but can help us explore and understand difficulties we may find in our life’s. As an Accredited Registered Member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. I have extensive experience of working with children, young people and adults across the Derby, Nottingham and surrounding areas who have experienced grief and loss, depression, anxiety, stress, bullying, trauma, attachment difficulties and self-esteem issues. My work with children and young people uses lots of play and craft activities. I have experienced extensive success in working with anxiety related disorders with children and young people with SEN, particularly ASD, ADHD, selective mutism and those with attachment difficulties. As well as my private practice, I also work as a school counsellor, and have worked in infant and junior schools across Derby. I have also been a school governor at a Derby Secondary School and have a good insight into the difficulties children and young people find in school. I also work with adults and offer a warm welcome and a comfortable, relaxing environment in which to explore what is troubling you at your own pace. As a humanistic integrative counsellor, you set the agenda, I facilitate and help you unravel whatever it is you bring to the session. I may also use ‘tools’ to help you with this such as stones, pictures, drawing.

My Garden Shed is green, yet my favourite colour is purple. Is your favourite colour here? What does the chart say about you? Do you agree?
I think I had better do my family tree to see where the royalty part comes from 🤣💚💜

Everyone can have ago. This amazing fish is being made by a young adult with air drying clay.

I get more painted rocks for my garden and the children were given new and improved 'Jackie in a bag' (which I really need to trademark 😄 )

I love the view out of the windows from my Garden Shed. However, today I put the blinds down. Suddenly my space was transformed into a cosy, comfy room, shut off from the world outside. Sometimes this is exactly what I need, a quiet, space, no distraction, to sit and take some well deserved 'me time'. ❤️

It's hot, hot, hot 🔥 in the Garden Shed this afternoon. It's not much cooler outside.

A young client today told me that they need me every day to help her stay calm. We explored why this isn't possible and then I had a brain wave...Jackie in a bag (or a first aid kit to help her regulate her emotions but that didn't sound as good). We talked about the things she can do and she came up with some amazing ideas, and I put together a few fidgets, and a note book to put in the bag...and here it is...Jackie in a bag 😃

Rest is so important, and is something I've been personally learning about over the last couple of years and I'm still not good at it 😊
