Anchor's Reach Therapy 

Anchor's Reach Therapy is located in a rural hamlet on the edge of Exmoor National Park coast. Providing psychotherapeutic services including counselling, psychotherapy and clinical supervision. 
Part of Talbot Counselling and Psychotherapy founded by Jo Henshall in Poole Dorset in 2018, Anchors Reach now extends this counselling service across the wider Somerset regions.


Counselling and psychotherapy are both “talking therapies” which attempt to help us make sense of our lives and survive the crisis, difficulty or turning point. Our aim is to clarify those aspects of the client’s life that cause distress, confusion or anger, that can lead to an individual to feel stuck, blocked, unfulfilled and desperate.
 

Jo has provided general counselling, CBT and psycho-therapeutic support across three charity and government funded counselling organisations, prior to the founding of The Talbot Counselling in February 2018.

She has had extensive training within the spectrum of trauma, and has successfully enabled adult survivors of childhood abuse, sexual violence and addictions to make beneficial changes to their lives.

 As an affiliated member of Anxiety Uk Jo has had additional training with anxiety / depression and mental health disorders and works to NICE guidelines delivering CBT.   â€‹

Her work with addictions took place within a drug and alcohol treatment centre in Dorset, where she also provided counselling support for people caring for someone with a drug and/or alcohol problem.


Introductory consultations available.
