Navigate Life's Challenges, Discover Your Strength
My name is Ulrike and I am a counsellor providing both short- and long-term therapy to adult individuals in Ascot and online.
I provide both long- and short-term counselling for adults in a friendly, safe, and confidential environment. My service offers a supportive space where you can make sense of difficult thoughts and feelings that may feel overwhelming when faced alone. Here, you can explore your emotions and better understand yourself and your history in order to effect positive change.
In addition to my Ascot counselling rooms I can also offer sessions online from the comfort of your home.
I assist clients in overcoming and managing stress, anxiety, depression, bereavement, life changes, trauma, relationship difficulties at home or work, and low self-esteem.
Whether in person or online, together we can reflect on your concerns and explore the changes you wish to make.
As a qualified integrative counsellor, I draw from a variety of psychological models to meet each client's unique needs. Recognizing that everyone is different, I tailor my approach to suit you individually, offering a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your identity, needs, and potential.
My name is Ulrike but everyone knows me as Ulli (which is pronounced just like “woolly but without the “w”). My own path to becoming a counsellor was inspired by personal experiences that highlighted the value of seeking support during challenging times. I understand that life can be unpredictable, and sometimes we need extra help to find our way.
Counselling takes place in a safe space, where you can meet with someone who will listen with sensitivity and empathy - and without judgement. In the therapy space thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and in confidence.
Trouble with a relationship; anxiety or panic attacks; mood swings or depression - many people face difficulties in their everyday lives that can be hard to get on top of. Counselling gives us a set of tools we can use to help gain a better understanding of what’s causing these problems - and how you can move towards managing or resolving them.
Working together I can help you gain greater insight into the difficulties you are facing, help you understand why you act or react to them the way you do, and see how you can start to make better, heathier choices moving forward.
I offer counselling and psychotherapy sessions from my practice based in Ascot, reaching clients from Berkshire, Surrey,Hampshire and surrounding areas. 1hr free street parking is available nearby.
Online sessions are also available via a secure video conference platform. Get in touch to learn more about online counselling.
Appointments are available for in-person and online counselling and run weekly at £60 per 50 minute session.
I offer a free 20-minute introductory phone conversation for you to get a sense of my approach and ask any questions you may have. During this time, we can briefly discuss what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve, without any commitment. This allows you to consider whether we are a good fit for each other and if you'd like to proceed. I will provide you with my availability, and we can plan the next steps.
In our first full 50 minute session, we can delve deeper into your circumstances, history and any specific issues you want to focus on, as well as discuss how we will work together.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about how counselling works, or to arrange an initial assessment appointment. This enables us to discuss the reasons you are thinking of coming to counselling, whether it could be helpful for you and whether I am the right therapist to help.
I am happy to discuss any queries or questions you may have prior to arranging an initial appointment.
All enquires are usually answered within 24 hours, and all contact is strictly confidential and uses secure phone and email services.
