About Dr Joan Collett
I am a Somerset West based therapist, specialising in narrative counselling.
What I do
Narrative counselling is a respectful, non-blameful approach that separates you as a person from your problems and encourages you to develop the necessary skills and attitudes needed to overcome your difficulties.
Experience & Qualifications
Clinical Psychology and Practical TheologyI hold a doctorate, completed in 2011, with specialisation in the eating disorders, (anorexia and bulimia) and other recognized forms of self-harming of behaviour, which provides me with specialist knowledge and a model of expertise necessary to deal with these conditions.
My academic qualifications in Clinical Psychology and Practical Theology, together with more than a decade of hands-on experience, extends my therapeutic care and support to include individual counselling, couples counselling and family / parental counselling.
Why come to me for counselling?
I have a deep, heartfelt concern for all lives crippled by emotional problems, by anorexia or bulimia, and other forms of recognized self-harming behaviour. I also firmly believe that everyone can achieve total transformation and healing. It is a reality I live every day. I have confidence in recovery – your recovery; it stems from witnessing first-hand the countless healing journeys of my clients.
