Counselling service in St Albans

Jo Marks

My main training has been in Psychodynamic (founded by Freud) and
Person Centred (Carl Rogers) theories and I am committed to continual

personal development and attend regular workshops. This helps keep

me up to date with advances in the field and continually expand my skills.

In conjunction with my private practice I have also worked at Youth Talk, St Albans

and also at Bereavement Matters (counselling adults and

visiting schools) and Signpost Counselling for Young People Aged 11 to 25 in

Watford. I have worked as a Voluntary Supervisor for Cruse Bereavement Care.

I am a registered accredited member of the BACP and practice under its Ethical

Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and am subject

to the Professional Conduct Procedure therein.

BUPA Therapist No: 30039390

I studied counselling at the Mary Ward Centre in London.

I am a fully qualified Supervisor and Counsellor. I hold:

Level 6 Certificate in Therapeutic Counselling Supervision

Level 4 Professional Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling

Level 3 Diploma in Counselling Skills

Certificate in Therapy with Couples & Other Relationships

(currently working towards: Specialist House Diploma in Counselling Children &

Young People ages 7-18)

I work in an integrative way which means I am not confined to one school

of counselling. I like to work creatively offering helpful tools from various

respected theories including art therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy,

mindfulness, guided visualisations and Gestalt based exercises. I am a

LGBTQ+ affirmative counsellor.
