Eleanor-Rose Counselling | Barnsley - About Me

About me

My name is Eleanor-Rose Barr and I am from Barnsley in South Yorkshire. My interest in Counselling began almost 30 years ago when I enrolled in a youth counselling course at school. I went on to study psychology at college and university before taking a break. However, it was never far from my thoughts and I undertook small online courses that developed me and deepened my interest in others. I took the plunge and enrolled at college to properly qualify as a Person-Centred Counsellor.

I am now fully qualified to level 4 diploma in counselling and an accredited registered member of NCPS (National Psychotherapy and Counselling Society.

I love to learn, this not only means continuing studying counselling and ways to help my clients but also learning about each client as an individual.
I follow the person-centred approach which means the focus is on the individual. Their experiences, feelings, thoughts and behaviours. You are the expert on yourself and I am with you to support and help you to help yourself, to explore the person you feel you are and the person you want to be.

I will provide a calming and safe environment in which you can speak freely without judgement.

My office is based at The Barnsley Innovation Centre in Wilthorpe, Barnsley.I have been told by my clients that it is a calming, relaxed space and the chairs are very comfortable!

I offer a free telephone consultation before you book in to ensure you are comfortable speaking with me and that we both feel we can work together on whatever you feel you want to bring to the sessions.
