A Bit About Me

I am Kim Zepler and I am a qualified Humanistic Counsellor.  I abide by the ethical framework of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. (BACP).  I am a Registered Member (MBACP). My membership number is 00933700.  Registration number 389528.

​

How come writing this is difficult?  This reflects my thoughts about how we cope and deal with the challenges we face in life. It can be scary.

​

All typo's, grammatical errors and the like are entirely mine.

I truly believe each one of us has our own unique voice and deep down we know what we need in life.  These inner feelings can be manifested in thoughts rattling inside us but we might not be able to express them, we sort of have the words but they can get stuck or 'it's complicated'.

It can be hard finding the courage to allow them out of our head. 

It might just be a feeling in our body that we can't explain.

This is where counselling can help and I speak from my own experience.

​

Life's too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. Talking helps us reflect and grow in a way that allows us to meet our true self.  Counselling and psychotherapy can help us change or become more accepting.

I also help people work on deeper seated issues - exploring how we got to be who we are.

​

I provide a safe, non-judgmental confidential space in which you can explore your world.  Humanistic counselling isn't about providing advice or telling you what to do.  I provide unconditional emotional support while you work through what you need to talk about.

 

Counselling doesn't necessarily need to be sitting in a quiet space struggling with self-expression, it can be conversational and collaborative.  What you want to achieve is up to you.  

​

I have a room at a discrete location on Poole High Street with parking nearby.

​

I also work via video and phone. 

 

I work most days during the week i.e., Monday to Fridays plus Saturday mornings.

However note I do not work Thursdays or Sundays

 

I offer 'walk and talk' (or sit) counselling in a beautiful park on the edge of Poole. Subject to weather and daylight.

I always have a 'Plan B'

​

You are welcome to mix your counselling sessions!!

​

Get in touch today to see how we can work together.  I might not be the counsellor for you and that's ok. 

It's all about the relationship.
