Hertfordshire > Harpenden > AL : 5 > Maire Owens Name:   Maire Owens    I practise at:   Harpenden, Hertfordshire AL5   Phone:   01582-462415      Professional    membership:   BACP  -  British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy   CPC  -  Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists in Primary Care   I see clients in a private and confidential setting where we have an opportunity to explore any difficulties or distress they may be experiencing. By listening attenvively, without judgement, I can begin to perceive, from the client's view point, their difficulties and help them to see things more clearly, possibly from a different perspective. Counselling can be enabling for the client and can bring about positive change and create a greater sense of personal autonomy. Over twelve years in my counselling practice I have gained a wide experience in helping clients with issues which include: depression, anxiety, bereavement and loss, relationship difficulties, spirituality, eating habits, life changing traumas, eg. Redundancy and retirement. Qualifications & Training B.A. Hons (Arts and Psychology) 1992. Diploma in Counselling, University of Hertfordshire (Accredited Course) 2000. I have an interest in Jungian Psychology and have completed a year's course at the Society of Analytical Psychology (London) exploring Jungian concepts and completed a post qualifying course in Primary Care Counselling at the Tavistock Clinic (London). Experience I qualified as a counsellor in 2000 and have been working with clients in both the primary care setting and private practice for the past twelve years. Fees 40 pounds.
