Bluebird Counselling & Psychotherapy

 

''There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out...''

(Charles Bukowski)

 

My name is Sabrina Andrews-Webb (she/her) and I'm an accredited integrative counsellor - MNCPS (Acc.)

 

Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards.

Counselling sessions

 

I work face-to-face with clients from my therapy room in the centre of Dawlish, Devon. I also work remotely (via Zoom) for clients who wish to have counselling remotely. You can find out more about where I'm based here.

 

I have worked with many different people - with different needs - from people living with feelings of stress, depression and anxiety, to people coping with bereavement and people dealing with the ongoing impacts of difficult life experiences. I believe it is possible to find a way through those experiences with compassion and support. I don't ask: 'what's wrong with you?' but rather, 'what happened to you?'

 

I'm especially passionate about working with people with traumatic life experiences, neurodivergent people and those in the LGBTQ+ community. Subsequently, much of my training post qualification are around these specific areas. In October of 2023 I completed specialist training in working with Trans and Gender-Questioning people with the organisation Gendered Intelligence, in London.

 

I am a cisgender bisexual and queer woman and I use she/her pronouns. I work in a gender-affirming way. I work with an open, non-judgemental mindset and am Poly/ENM/Kink and BDSM aware. I understand that everyone is different and some have different types of relationship.

I also have the opinion that therapy is political: I work in a way that acknowledges the importance and relevance of current events, political goings-on and overarching power structures that affect my clients. It is important to say that I aim to be anti-oppression and anti-fascist in my work. I also aim to be inclusive for neurodivergent clients; I am happy to make adjustments to sessions where needed.

 

Our sessions can focus on anything that is important to you. I offer a discounted 30-minute introductory meeting (face-to-face or via Zoom) so that you can decide if I am a good fit for you as a Counsellor. During this meeting, I can explain to you in a little more detail about how I work and you can talk to me more about what you might want to discuss in our therapy sessions together. This is also a great opportunity to ask any questions you might have!

 

I am dedicated to meeting you where you are in your life and working with you to support you in making positive changes, reconnecting with yourself and making sense of your world.

In the depth of winter, I learned that within me  there lay an invincible summer.

(Albert Camus)
