Kim Balmer

My working hours are flexible. Please note I hold a waiting list for the most in demand days/times. 

I am an BACP Accredited Counselling Practitioner, EMDR Therapist as well as an  Clinical Supervisor. I use an integrative approach in order to achieve the best outcomes for my clients.

Whatever age group I am working with I feel privileged to be able to support and work through your individual issues.

I have a wide range of therapeutic experience and so a free 30 minutes  informal phone or online chat is always a good starting point. This will provide us with a good perspective of how we might proceed, and which therapeutic approaches maybe be suitable.

I work with Adults, Young People and Children, having advanced EMDR training for CYP.

I work in private practice, with EAP companies, charities and in education from primary schools right through to universities. I supervise qualified and training Counsellors as well as working with educational staff members for Consultative Supervision.The option of dream work can also be a part of my work.

Sessions are usually 50 minutes 

If we decide to begin a therapeutic intervention, the first session will be an assessment, information gathering, session in order to establish the needs of the client. if the client is a child, I would see both parent/care giver and child together.

When working with younger children it is not unusual for me to work systemically seeing both child and parent together.

I work face to face as well as online. I use an integrative approach as each client is unique with individual life experiences. All counselling session content is held in the strictest confidence.

I'm Kim, 

A Clinical Supervisor who has a particular passion for supervising counsellors working with Children and Young People as well as counsellor who would like to work with this client group. 

I have many years experience as a school based counsellor in primary and secondary school, as well as supervisory work within further education and with university students,

I also work in educational environments delivering consultancy supervision for staff.

As well as child therapy, I work with a wide range of client groups, having many years of experience within the voluntary sector and currently work as a supervisor within this setting. 

I offer face to face or online supervision to qualified and counsellors in training. 

I can’t emphasise enough the importance of an honest and genuine supervisory relationship were counsellors feel comfortable to be open and self-reflective while exploring all aspects of their client work. 

I begin with an informal introductory phone call or online meeting, which is completely free of charge. This will provide us with a good perspective of how we might proceed in fulfilling your supervisory needs. 

We can then begin contacting in a collaborative manor, this usually works with me sending a draft contract for you to read. 

Following this we would proceed to your specific supervisory requirements.
