Meet Cherry 💚
We're so incredibly proud of Cherry and everything she brings to The Counselling Space. Her warmth, wisdom, and genuine commitment to her clients shine through in every session.
Cherry specialises in grief and loss, trauma, EMDR, chronic illness, low self-esteem, IFS therapy, and cultural identity. But what makes her truly special is her lived experience and the compassion that flows from it.
In her own words:
"My path into this work began with my own therapy in my twenties to process grief and trauma. That experience was a turning point: I realised I wanted to offer the same kind of space to others. My interest was rooted in grief and loss, inspired by my lived experience and my time volunteering with Cruse Bereavement Care.
At college I was told 'your specialism will choose you'. When I first qualified, I found myself working with a lot of people who had experienced trauma and loss. Over time I've found I often work with the 'strong ones' in families, people who've coped alone for a long time and are ready to heal rather than just hold it all together.
I've also spent 4 years working with kidney patients and their families in short-term counselling, where the work was about facing the reality of a scary diagnosis, finding the courage to face one's mortality, and discovering what makes life meaningful."
This is what we love about Cherry, she doesn't just understand her clients' journeys, she walks alongside them with authenticity and real human connection.
If you're looking for someone who truly gets it, who can hold space for your grief, your trauma, your pain, and help you find meaning again, Cherry is here for you.
You belong here. 💚
