Making of You Counselling Services

Corinna Walker

Counsellor in Yarm, North Yorkshire

I am an integrative and trauma-informed counsellor working with adults experiencing a range of emotional, personal and relationship challenges.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Counselling and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I work within their ethical framework and have regular supervision, alongside continuous professional development to support my practice.

I was drawn to counselling through an interest in how life experiences shape the way we cope, and how therapy can create space for reflection, self-understanding and personal growth.

Alongside my core training, I have completed specialist training with DACTARI in domestic abuse counselling and with Rape Crisis in sexual abuse and trauma work.

My Approach

I offer a calm, non-judgemental and confidential space where you can slow things down and talk things through at your own pace.

My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, with a strong person-centred foundation. This means I use a range of therapeutic approaches and techniques, adapting our sessions to your individual needs and experiences rather than following a fixed structure.

This collaborative process allows us to focus on what feels most important for you. I may draw on CBT-informed strategies, psychodynamic exploration, psychoeducation and solution-focused approaches, where helpful and appropriate.

Therapy with me

Therapy can help you explore patterns, emotions, relationships, boundaries and how you relate to yourself.

Over time, this can support greater self-understanding, a clearer sense of self and help you reconnect with what matters to you.

What issues can therapy help with?

Depression and low mood

Anxiety, stress and burnout
