About Valerie Hutchinson

Valerie Hutchinson is a UK-based counsellor with three years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She recognises that reaching out for help often requires courage, and she meets people where they are when anxiety, grief, numbness, or the long-term effects of childhood emotional neglect are present.

Her work supports both individuals and couples who are seeking clarity around relationships, a stronger sense of self, or relief from what feels overwhelming. Some people come wanting to rebuild trust, others want to make sense of emotional patterns or reconnect to their own needs. In every case her approach is paced to the client so progress can feel manageable.

Valerie combines warmth and patience with attentive listening, and she aims to create a space where clients feel heard and supported. Her clinical approaches include attachment-based work, client-centred therapy, and cognitive behavioural techniques, used to help people explore patterns, manage difficult emotions, and build practical ways forward.
