COUNSELLING & PSYCHOTHERAPY IN BournemoutH, Poole AND ONLINE
Psychotherapeutic Counselling in Bournemouth, Poole and Online.
Wish you had someone to talk to, without worrying your friends and family? Does life seem so difficult and lacking meaning? Do you know what you want to do, but get stuck or lose motivation?
Therapy can be a powerful way to explore what might be getting in the way and navigate life’s challenges and find clarity especially if you're curious about finding meaning and understanding yourself.
Having someone to talk to, outside of family and friends and in a therapeutic, confidential environment can be a place to explore thoughts, reactions, and feelings.
About Me
Hello, my name is Rosa Trout, thank you for visiting my website.
As I entered my second half of life, I started to think about my future self while still being able to utilise my skills and knowledge from my professional background in education, children's services and family support, and so I started training during lock down to be a psychotherapist.
I now have a small private practice in Poole and Bournemouth which I am thrilled with.
Training with TA East in London has encouraged me to self reflect at the intersections of my own life as well as the community I engage with, which has helped provide a vital lens when working with clients.
I have always been interested in how we are all influenced by the people in our lives, our home, and community growing up and how adversity can be exhausting even if it's overcome!
To help me relax and recharge, I like going for walks and spending time by the seaside!
I am also a registered member of UKCP,UKATA ,EATA and ITAA as an Advanced Trainee and I have a Master’s degree which I achieved in 2011. I was a counsellor in placement with Full Circle counselling service for 3 years.
I have regular supervision and continue to attend professional development courses to further increase my understanding and skills of psychotherapy and counselling.
Working With Me
It’s important to me that as client and therapist, we can communicate and connect,
so that you are able to share your thoughts, feelings and hopes, in order for the therapy to be successful.
Knowing the difference listening makes, I hope to create a space, where you feel safe and comfortable.
I will be empathetic and ensure we are working towards the goals that you want to achieve.
This is accomplished through contracting, along with regular reviews and reflections.
What Can Therapy Help With?
It is important to me as a therapist that you feel able to communicate with me and can commit to regular weekly sessions to establish a connection.
People come to me for help with a wide range of challenges. Here are a few of the most common difficulties that can be supported through therapy.

Anxiety
Anger Management
Depression
Difficulties at Work or in Retirement
Feelings of Stress and Anxiety
Grief, Loss, or Bereavement

My Approach
Well-being and self-care are integral for us to live in our ever fast paced world, and sometimes being reminded of this can make a huge difference!
I am a relational therapist and I practice in Transactional Analysis with an integrated therapeutic approach from a counselling suite in Winton.
My background has equipped me to understand the importance of relationships and how they shape our emotional wellbeing from birth and into adulthood.
Transactional Analysis by Eric Berne, appealed to me because of the theoretical concepts of 3 ego states which he believed are developed in our earliest formative years. These can help make sense of why we have certain thoughts, reactions and behaviours based on the Parent, Adult, and Child ego state.
Ego states
Berne defined an ego state as ‘a consistent pattern of feeling and experience directly related to a corresponding consistent pattern of behaviour'.
Most of all, I offer an empathetic, confidential, and non- judgemental way of listening, paying attention and offering encouragement and support to clients.
I have strong values for honesty, integrity and fairness and I will encompass these in my counselling and psychotherapy service. I abide to the ethical frameworks of UKCP to ensure my practice provides a safe and confidential service. This includes registering and complying with GDPR guidelines.
My Locations
I have a therapy room at Sandbanks Clinic, Poole and in Bournemouth too!
I also offer on-line therapy if these locations are too far away.
