Inner-Journey Counselling Services

13/05/2026

Many professionals spend their days supporting others through stress, crisis, trauma, grief, emotional pressure, and difficult life experiences — often while quietly carrying the emotional impact themselves.

This is something we regularly see within:
💚 Care and support services
💚 Education and SEN settings
💚 Veterinary practices
💚 Healthcare environments
💚 Charities and community organisations
💚 Foster care and safeguarding services

At Inner Journey Counselling Services, we provide confidential workplace counselling and wellbeing support for organisations who want a more personal, responsive, and human-centred approach to staff wellbeing support.

We understand the emotional demands many caring and people-focused professions face, and we are passionate about supporting both organisations and the people within them.

We are currently welcoming enquiries from organisations across Essex seeking workplace wellbeing and employee support services.

🛋️ A Humanist at the Freud Museum London...

I don’t always agree with Freud (ok, I often don’t 😅), but I do respect him. He was, after all, a founder — and standing in the space where psychoanalysis was born carries its own kind of weight.

This weekend I visited the Freud Museum in London. As a humanistic practitioner, much of Freud’s theory doesn't align with my person-centred values — but being there reminded me how important it is to honour the roots of our profession, even as we grow in different directions.

🃏 Bonus: I picked up some new therapy cards in the gift shop that I definitely plan to use in a creative, client-led way!

💙 Even more special was sharing the day with my son, who’s currently completing his counselling training. Felt a little like Sigmund & Anna — keeping it in the family (minus the couch and the cigar 😉).
