I share 4 helpful tips to help clients say goodbye to Sunday-scaries and hello to mellow-Mondays, check it out:
Hello!
Thank you for being here.
I’m Grace Parker, a warm and compassionate Integrative Counsellor based in Guildford, Haslemere and London.
I support individuals at any stage of life who feel that something needs to change. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, low mood, grief, or navigating a major life transition such as becoming a parent, relationship changes, or career uncertainty or perhaps you simply feel lost and unsure where to turn, please know it’s all welcome here. Together, we can find a new route forward.
I offer a safe, gentle and understanding therapy space that’s unique to you - a place where you can be fully accepted, just as you are. No matter how big or impossible your problems may seem, you’ll be met with empathy and care. In our work together, we’ll hold space for whatever feels heavy, explore ways to ease your symptoms, and gently rewrite the beliefs that keep you stuck. My aim is to help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence and self-compassion, creating a life that feels more balanced and authentic to you.

Client Testimonial - Female, 30s
"I sought therapy after a period of change in my life. I was struggling - I felt stuck.
Speaking to Grace made me feel heard and understood. She gave me a safe space to explore my experiences, as well as providing me with practical tools to help me with my mental health"
How I Help
No two days are the same and neither are therapy sessions with me. Each one is shaped around where you are right now and what you most need in that moment.
In our first session, we’ll talk about what you’d like to gain from counselling. Your goals will guide our work, but if something else feels more important along the way, we’ll follow that too. I regularly check in so you can reflect, reassess, and decide whether we stay on course or take a new direction together.
You don’t need to arrive as your “best self.” It’s completely okay to feel tired, anxious, uncertain, or emotional. Some days you might want me to offer structure and share simple tools or practices to use between sessions; other times, you might just need space to be heard while I gently hold a light to what feels unclear.
However you show up, you’ll be met with warmth and understanding. I’ll walk alongside you as we explore what’s been weighing you down, uncover what truly matters to you, and build ways to protect your energy, boundaries, and sense of self-worth.
If you’re ready to make your first step toward greater clarity, confidence, and calm - reach out today.

About Me
I go litter-picking once a month.
My cat Penny, don't let her innocent look fool you!
Painting her Highness
I’m Grace Parker, a Registered MBACP Integrative Therapist with a warm, down-to-earth style. I offer counselling in Guildford, Haslemere and London, as well as online therapy for clients across the UK.
My own experience of therapy during a difficult time was life-changing. It helped me find clarity, confidence and self-understanding when I needed it most. When that chapter ended, I knew I wanted to help others experience the same sense of healing and possibility.
In sessions, I offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore what’s going on, manage difficult emotions and reconnect with yourself. I work with people facing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, grief, relationship issues and major life changes, or anyone who simply feels stuck and wants things to be different.
Outside of work, I love writing (you can read my blog), spending time in nature and relaxing with my cat, Penny - who knows she’s the real star of the show.
