Verity Spencer is a BACP Accredited Integrative Psychotherapist who holds a BSc in Psychology (London). She is based near Virginia Water in Surrey and has over fourteen years of experience working with both teenagers and adults.

Her earlier counselling roles have included work at a boarding school and a psychological support service for young people in Bracknell, Berkshire. In her practice she offers professional psychological support in a dependable, calm and confidential environment where clients can explore their feelings and view their lives from a different perspective. The aim of this work is to reduce confusion and enable clients to make informed choices, manage challenges or make positive changes.

Verity�s integrative training brings together person-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural approaches. She supports people with a range of concerns, including PTSD and CPTSD, relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety, stress, bereavement, loss, loneliness and low self-esteem.

She creates an open and safe space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgement and remains mindful of each client�s view of the world. Verity spent several years working in the UK and abroad as a news broadcaster in radio and television, a period that provided extensive experience of working with people from many countries, both within teams and independently. That background has attracted clients from various cultures who have said they found her understanding of religious and cultural differences and respect for others’ societal norms helpful.

Taking the first step to begin therapy can take courage; Verity aims to treat clients with the utmost respect and care throughout the process.
