Jamie Forster, AMBICA, MNCPS (Acc.) MBPsS
I am an integrative counsellor, with a person-centred approach at the heart of my work. I believe that everyone deserves to feel heard, understood and accepted, particularly during life’s more challenging moments. I completed my postgraduate qualifications in Counselling Psychology at Keele University, alongside additional qualifications in Child Psychology and Play Therapy.
Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals, couples and families facing a wide range of personal and emotional challenges. I have a particular interest in fertility counselling, supporting people through infertility, fertility treatment, donor conception and the many different paths to parenthood.
Alongside my private practice, I am the Senior Fertility Counsellor and Support Lead at London Women’s Clinic, and serve as a trustee and Executive Committee member of the British Infertility Counselling Association (BICA).
I am an accredited member of BICA and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), and a graduate member of the British Psychological Society (BPS).
My approach to counselling I believe that you are the expert in your own life. My role isn’t to tell you what to do, but to offer a space where you can explore your experiences, make sense of your feelings and find a way forward that feels right for you.
I don’t just focus on the difficulties you might be facing. I focus on you as a person.
For me, counselling is about building a genuine, trusting relationship where you feel safe enough to be yourself, without judgement or expectation.
Sometimes life doesn’t need fixing. Sometimes we simply need someone to listen, understand and walk alongside us while we work things out.
