I am Hazel Marshall and I am a Counsellor working in Stowmarket on Fridays. I offer counselling for adults.

I am a fully qualified Counsellor and have been practising for 23 years. I am an Accredited member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists and abide by their Code of Ethics. I began my counselling training with the University of East Anglia and continued at the Colchester Institute, gaining my Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling (Humanistic Person-Centred) in 2001. I then attained my MSc in Counselling Studies and Supervisory Skills with Essex University.
True to the Person-Centred philosophy at the heart of my practice, I respect that we are all uniquely individual and I believe that the answers to our own specific problems lie within us. However, there are times when those answers can be difficult to see, obscured by stressful situations or issues which conspire to cloud our judgement and preoccupy our minds. At such times it isn’t always easy, or even realistic, to turn to friends, family, or our usual support networks. Sometimes it may help to talk to an empathic professional and I provide a safe, supportive, confidential space where thoughts, feelings and anxieties can be explored in a non-judgemental way, allowing you to find your way to those elusive answers.
