WELCOME TO SUNFLOWER COUNSELLING
About
Hello, my name’s Rebecca Corlett. I am a qualified person-centred counsellor and Sunflower Counselling is my private practice. I work with individuals offering emotional support to adults 18+ for a range of issues, including bereavement and sudden traumatic loss.
I work face to face from my room in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, as well as online and by telephone. I aim to offer you a non-judgemental, safe and supportive environment where you can be heard and accepted and where you can explore and process your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. I am not here to advise you, or tell you what to do - I do not live
your life and it's not my place - but we can work together and I can support you to explore and discover your own answers.
I am an accredited registrant of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) which means that I adhere to their code of ethics.
My training and education includes:
-
A CPCAB Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling.
-
A Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology
-
A Counselling Tutor Certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling
-
IARTT training in the Rewind Technique.
-
Road Victims Trust (RVT) training programme for working with sudden traumatic loss and road collision
-
I also take regular CPD courses.
I have experience working with several counselling agencies including domestic abuse support agencies, and I continue to volunteer with the Road Victims Trust (RVT) working with clients affected by road collisions. I have experience working with a variety of presenting issues. These include but are not limited to:
-
Bereavement and grief
-
Carers
-
Discrimination
-
Experience working in elderly and palliative care and working with family members of aging adults
-
Family and relationships issues
-
Identity

Life transitions
-
Neurodivergence - with or without a diagnosis. Including, but not limited to: Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia Dyspraxia, Social Communication Disorder. I also work with people supporting neurodivergence (family, friends, carers)

Witnesses of road collision, road death, and serious injury
This list is not exhaustive and I am happy to work with you if you are experiencing common mental health problems, personal challenges, or wanting to explore and further your understanding of yourself in a safe space.
I have a special interest in neurodiversity and have experience working with both neurotypical, and neurodivergent clients, as well as those with other challenges and disabilities. I invite you to discuss with me anything you might need to make therapy more accessible to you. I take a neuro affirming stance and embrace uniqueness and difference.
Services & Fees
I offer private counselling with individuals and I work with adult clients aged 18+.
Sessions cost £55 and are 50 minutes long. They are usually weekly to begin with but can be fortnightly, depending on your counselling needs.
Introductory Phone call
I offer a free 20 minute phone consultation to help you decide if I am the ‘right’ counsellor for you. You can use this time to ask me any questions and we can talk through how we might work together.
Initial Assessment
If you decide you'd like to work with me then you will be invited to book an initial assessment. Assessment is an important part of counselling and helps ensure that your needs and my skills and experience are well matched.
I encourage you to ask questions to help enable you to decide whether you would like to continue and book further counselling sessions with me.
Online Sessions
Online sessions are accessed through Google Meet. You will need a laptop/computer/tablet or smartphone plus a good internet connection. You will need access to a private space where you can speak freely without being overheard.
Phone Sessions
Please ensure you are available for the session at the agreed start time. You will need access to a private space where you can speak freely without being overheard.
Confidentiality
I take your privacy very seriously. I am registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office. I will discuss confidentiality with you at our first session to ensure that you feel comfortable with my policies.
