Quality Counselling
I’m Ayse McKenzie
I have over 20 years experience working as a Counsellor with adults and young people and am a registered member of BACP.
After completing my placement at a counselling agency in Nuneaton, I secured a job working for Relate immediately after graduating. Whilst working for Relate I trained and qualified as a couple counsellor. Both agencies welcomed clients with a whole variety of issues and enabled me to gain a wealth of experience. I worked as a Relate counsellor for 8 years before becoming independent and until 2023 was a resident counsellor at a grammar school and secondary school in Warwickshire.
Many clients have expressed the need for face to face counselling and I am able to provide this in a purpose built comfortable and confidential setting in Kenilworth.
My specialisms are working with couples, teenagers and adults dealing with a variety of issues ranging from bereavement, grief, separation, loss of self worth, depression, anger, trauma and anxiety, as well as supporting parents who are struggling to cope.
My Qualifications
Diploma in Integrative Counselling (Warwick) MBACP
Qualified Couple Counsellor (Relate)
Certificate in Schools Work Training (Relate)
Certificate in Group Skills (Relate)
My Goals
I am passionate about everyone reaching their full potential and see my role as providing a safe, non judgmental environment in which to work alongside people to achieve this.
For me, counselling is ultimately about the relationship between client and counsellor. Building that relationship with people is my biggest strength as I am an open, warm and appropriately challenging counsellor.
