Roxy Birdsall

Roxy
Birdsall

Chester

Roxy is a pluralistic therapist, trained in Person-Centred Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Theraplay-Informed Therapy. Roxy has experience of working with children, young people, adults and families and believes in working collaboratively with her clients to tailor therapy to fit their challenges, strengths and life experiences. Working from a pluralistic perspective, Roxy practices from the viewpoint that it is about finding the right approach at the right time for each client.

For families, Roxy can provide Theraplay-Informed sessions, which focuses on strengthening and repairing the relationship between parent/carer and child/young person through play-based interactions. This approach can be blended with 1-2-1 parent/carer sessions which are therapeutic or psychoeducational in nature.

For adults, Roxy can provide Person-Centred Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as stand alone approaches, or can provide blended/flexible use of the approaches.

Roxy also brings an understanding of diversity to her therapeutic practice, providing an affirmative space for LGBTQ+ individuals/families and People of Colour. She is currently undertaking a Doctorate at the University of Chester in Counselling and Psychotherapy Studies, focusing on working class identities within counselling/psychotherapy.
