ZOE NEWTON COUNSELLING
IN-PERSON AND ONLINE THERAPY
What is Counselling?
Counselling offers a way to share and process the painful, upsetting and stressful things you're going through. It can also be useful for making and maintaining changes in your life, including with boundaries, relationship issues, self-belief, as well as more complex issues. It can be challenging and confronting, and your counsellor will be there to help you hold those feelings.
Counselling provides a non-judgemental place to talk openly with a professional that can help you to explore your feelings and fully accept you for who you are.
Everyone deserves a place where they feel they can truly be themselves and share openly and without fear, and that is what counsellors aim to offer.
Our work together
Hello, I'm Zoe! I'm a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Bristol City Centre.
Experiencing life changes and learning to prioritise yourself can be really daunting, and sometimes brings new feelings that can be difficult to understand. I hope to create a warm, non-judgemental environment that's comfortable for you, where we feel able to be honest and open with each other. By building our trust, we aim for you to feel able to share anything that's on your mind, explore how you’re feeling and begin to process the changes that are happening.
I primarily work with people aged 18-35 that are going through life changes, such as relationships beginning or ending, exploring identity and sexuality, living away from family, starting university, and experiencing mental health issues, amongst others. While this is my speciality, I’m happy to work with anyone 16+, and anything you wish to bring is welcome without judgement.
I genuinely love my clients and feel honoured that I get to experience their honesty, bravery and all the things that make us human!
What will sessions be like?
Anything you wish to talk about is welcome, and I'm happy to explore and support you through all of the experiences and feelings you want to bring to counselling. We will go at your pace and there's no pressure to share anything before you feel ready.
I won't analyse you or offer quick fixes, instead, I will be alongside you, helping you feel less alone when you're facing painful and upsetting things. I will ask some questions and we'll have back and forth conversation, but how much you want to share and explore is always up to you.

Online sessions are available as well.
Sessions are £65.
I often have concession spaces available, please contact me to check.
The first session
In our first session, we'll spend time exploring how you're doing, what you're hoping to get from counselling, and talking about how I can support you.
I'm happy to answer to any questions you might have, and I'll likely have a few of my own too!
What happens next?
If we decide we're a good fit and you're happy to work with me, we will continue having weekly sessions in that same day and time slot.
I offer long-term counselling so there's no set amount of sessions, and you can let me know when you feel you're ready to end.
