Hope Valley Counselling is named after the area in which it operates - the Hope Valley, in the Derbyshire Peak District - an area of outstanding natural beauty and the perfect place for people to have 'time away' to recover. Hope Valley Counselling also specialises in providing Post-Cult Counselling (PCC) which is informed by Gillie Jenkinson's doctoral research and the four Phases of Recovery and Growth.
Hope Valley Counselling provides Gestalt psychotherapy, integrative psychotherapy and counselling to individuals coping with and range of issues. While psychotherapy and counselling sessions are usually face-to-face in her consulting room in the Hope Valley; Skype and phone sessions are available when meeting in person is not practical.
The Hope Valley Counselling Certificate in Post-Cult Counselling (C-PCC) is designed to train therapists to work with survivors of coercive and cultic groups and relationships and spiritual abuse and to use a psychoeducational Recovery Workbook developed by Dr Gillie Jenkinson. The Recovery Workbook is at the heart of Post-Cult Counselling (PCC).
In this interview, Gillie offers some ideas for recovery which are applicable to those born and or raised in a cult.

Genuinely kind, consummate professional. Highly knowledgeable about high influence groups cults and spiritual abuse. Perfectly modeled her person-centered training during psychoeducation sessions through true understanding, and positive regard. Always follows up sessions with emails containing materials discussed or to be read. Once I had developed anxiety right before the session ended, and she spent 5-10 minutes after session time just to calm me down - indelible thoughtfulness and professionalism :)
