Counselling and Psychotherapy in Bristol

Linda Walker, Counselling.


Hello, my name is Linda Walker, welcome to my web site.

I offer counselling and psychotherapy in Bristol
I am a BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist and I have worked as a therapist in Bristol for 21 years.

In addition to working with general issues, and I have listed some examples below, I also have experience of addiction counselling in Bristol particularly counselling clients who are seeking help with alcohol and drug addiction.

I trained at the University of the West of England in Integrative Counselling.
(to find out more about Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy click here )

These are some examples of the sorts of difficulties I work with ....

  • You are experiencing feelings of depression, anxiety or panic attacks
  • May be concerned about your use of alcohol and worrying you may have an addiction
  • Are feeling low self esteem and excessively anxious in social situations.
  • You are struggling to cope with a recent or past bereavement
  • Feeling your anger is out of control or maybe not able to get angry when it might be appropriate to do so.
  • Are in the middle of a life crisis.
  • Having relationship difficulties, with peers, partner or children.
  • Struggling with career choices, work and life balance or problems at work such as bullying.
  • Have been diagnosed as H.I.V. positive or worried you may be at risk of H.I.V.

    Pleae note I can work with you around any difficulties in your relationship with a partner but I do not work with couples.

    I also have training and experience of counselling clients who are struggling with their use of , alcohol and drugs, are H.I.V. positive and of working with students and young people (over 18 years).

    I work in Bristol from practices in St. Andrews and Horfield in North Bristol
    I work in the evenings as well as the day time and often have evening appointments. Both of the rooms have good on street parking and are easily accessible from the Gloucester Road and bus routes in and out of Bristol.

    The St. Andrews practice is near Sommerville Road and the Horfield practice is on Maple Road.

  • There is no charge for the initial session .

    I charge £40 with concessions available. Please enquire about this.


  • At our first meeting I will listen to you and we can explore what you are looking for from counselling and I will help you to decide what would work best for you.


    There is more information on these different ways of working under
    "Counselling and Psychotherapy" on this web-site.

    Please take the time to read through my web site and email or give me a call if there is anything that you would like to discuss further or to make an
    appointment for an initial meeting
    .

    My telephone number is 07749 716734
