My name is Abi van Andel. I am a qualified counsellor specialising in supporting those living with the impacts of traumatic experiences and individuals with trauma related disorders (including PTSD, complex trauma and dissociative disorders). I am passionate about helping people understand and manage their trauma symptoms through talking therapy.
There is so much hope to be found in processing trauma and starting to integrate what we’ve explored into your daily life. I am first and foremost a person-centred counsellor, but also incorporate education in my sessions on how trauma effects us physically and mentally, plus I can offer CBT based tools to recovery depending on your needs.
I conduct face to face sessions in the West Penwith area of Cornwall and can also arrange sessions online or over the telephone. I love working outdoors and am happy to arrange ‘walk and talk’ sessions with anyone who would like this option.
I am able to travel to other places in Cornwall to offer support for any emergency service organisations.
When I am not counselling in my private practice, I work as a part-time lecturer in Counselling for Camborne Counselling Institute, and as an associate lecturer for Camborne College, running workshops on Working with Childhood Trauma.
If you have any questions, please contact me! I would love to hear from you.
