We became member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) in April 2023, this means we are committed to providing safe, ethical and professional counselling services for our clients and all our work reflects their values and ethics.
The founder, Gemma, assisted by Kay, was inspired to start this charity after a traumatic event that happened to a close family member.
Realising that there was very little support tailored to the person affected and non at all for those around her that also suffered, Aura was born. The realisation of that ripple effect throughout the family that turns lives upside down was the drive needed to create the organisation to do just this.
Aura offer emotional support to anyone affected by changes within their lives that have a negative impact on their mental health.
Amelia is in her 30’s and came to Aura for counselling after the sudden death of her partner.
John’s relationship broke down during the first lockdown. He was also furloughed from work at the same time so felt extremely isolated and unhappy.
Chris had a lack of confidence, low self-worth, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, this was due to abuse suffered in his childhood.
