About Me
Welcome to Purple Clover Counselling & Psychotherapy!
I'm Theresa Smith, a dedicated and compassionate counsellor and psychotherapist based in Southampton, Hampshire. With a warm and empathetic approach, I'm here to support you on your journey towards healing, growth, and self-discovery.
My path to becoming a counsellor began with a deep-seated desire to help others navigate life's challenges with compassion and understanding. After witnessing the transformative power of therapy in my own life, I felt compelled to pursue a career in counselling.
I embarked on my formal training in Person-Centred Counselling & Psychotherapy at Middlesex University, London, where I honed my skills and deepened my understanding of human psychology. In 2020, I completed my degree in Person-Centred Counselling & Psychotherapy, laying the foundation for my career as a therapist.

In addition to my private practice at Purple Clover, I bring a wealth of experience from various counselling roles:
