My name is Michelle Oakman. I am a psychotherapist practicing in North Bath. My psychotherapy training was integrative which means I can draw on a variety of therapeutic models to meet individual needs. I am committed to providing psychotherapy and counselling in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment. I am UKCP registered.
I work with individuals on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully. Short term therapy or counselling will start to address issues, and help point you in the right direction.
Longer term psychotherapy will enable you to go deeper. By having more understanding and containment of emotional difficulties there is the opportunity to find greater joy and meaning in your life. I offer an initial assessment session for us both to identify needs and problems,and for you to decide if you wish to go ahead.
My fee is £35 for one hour, but I do have some lower cost places on request.
Couples Counselling
I offer sessions of one hour with a fee of £45 or £60 for 90 minutes. I can also, on request, offer a reduced rate for a fixed number of sessions.
I practiced as a trainee psychotherapist and counsellor in North Bath for over seven years before becoming a fully qualified psychotherapist in 2012. My psychotherapy and counselling practice is in Fairfield Park. I am 15 minutes walking distance from Milsom Street and the London Road. The number 7 bus stops almost outside. I am also 20 minutes drive from the Kingswood side of Bristol. There is plenty of free parking on the road by my practice.
