I can help you heal from the past, feel confident about your future and build better relationships in the present.
Welcome and thank you for visiting Alice Harris Counselling.
Counselling for adults and young people aged 13+ in person in Olney and Milton Keynes, Bedfordshire, as well as online.
Therapy with me is a place to be really heard. I will really listen to you as we explore your concerns in a truly safe space. It will be engaging, productive and a place you can gain true insight into yourself. In a session together we might use words, listen to music, work with fabric, draw, or learn how your mind and body work together to heal itself. Ultimately we will always be guided by you, because I really believe you know yourself best.
I am an integrative counsellor specialising in trauma, healthy relationships, anxiety and more . . .
I approach trauma using a whole body approach, which means I believe we can to do more than talk about what happened for you to feel relief. I will work to help you feel safe and feel more in control of overwhelming feelings, I will not ask you to tell your story in detail if you do not want to. Instead, we will work with your emotional responses and the sensations in your body using a combination of somatic, interpersonal techniques, psychoeducation and ultimately a feeling of safety while working together.

I work from a lovely set of rooms in Olney specifically set up for counselling.
This counselling room is only accessible via a set of stairs, so if this is difficult for you I would be happy to work with you online or from Aspley Guise for your convenience.
There is ample free parking on the High Street or behind the building in Fountain Court.
Sometimes due to location, commitments or individual reasons my clients prefer to work online. I am delighted to be able to offer this and work via a safe and confidential web platform.
I offer a free initial 30 minute phone conversation to help you decide if we will work well together and to discuss the focus of our work together.
Sessions start at £55 for 50 minutes.
Additionally at our first session I take a deposit of £55 which will be held as payment for the final session.
Sessions are usually the same time every week to add structure and focus to your work with me.
I work with a wide variety of issues including but not limited to: Anxiety, depression, relationship issues, difficult life experiences and trauma, survivors of abuse and bereavement.
