About Serenity

Serenity was first established by founder, Amy Jones in 2018. In 2019, co-founder Sarah Nelson joined Serenity and since then Amy and Sarah have been working together to launch Serenity Counselling. 

Serenity works under the guidance of and within the requirements of the BACP.  We are accredited members of the BACP and NCPS.  Our counsellors are qualified and insured therapists who specialise in helping people with their issues.  We are continually growing to achieve our mission and vision statements and become a highly reputable private counselling practice in the North West of England and Wales.

Private counselling fees can be expensive. The NHS usually only provide a free counselling service in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and may only provide a limited number of counselling sessions and there may be excessive waiting lists.

We believe at Serenity that everybody should have access to a counselling service and that is why we offer our services at an affordable rate.

How do I know if the counselling is working?

It’s hard to tell you exactly as you’re the best judge of this.

Here are some of the changes noticed during counselling:

  • I can deal better with my problems

  • I know my strengths

  • I feel like I understand and like myself better

  • I notice how hard I was on myself and where that came from

  • I now know my feelings were normal grief emotions and that I’m not alone

  • I know that there is light at the end of the tunnel

  • I know I can seek counselling again in the future, should I ever need it

There may be physical and practical changes too:

  • I sleep better

  • I have ways of calming myself down

  • I don’t argue with people so much

  • I cried with my counsellor, which is a first

  • I’m going out more with friends
