We’re delighted to welcome Frances Short, an experienced and compassionate counsellor, to our team here at Ashlins Natural Health in Walthamstow.

You might be thinking about coming to counselling for many different reasons.
Perhaps life feels a bit harder than usual, relationships are challenging, or you’re facing something new and uncertain. Or maybe you simply feel it’s time for change — to explore new thoughts, patterns, and ways of living.
Frances offers a calm, reflective space to help you make sense of what’s happening. Her approach is warm and collaborative: together, you’ll explore how you uniquely meet and experience life, building understanding and creating room for new and different choices.
Frances draws on both psychological and philosophical perspectives, adapting her work to your individual needs.
She holds a BACP-accredited Diploma in Gestalt Counselling and a Certificate in Humanistic Counselling, and is currently completing an MA in Existential Psychotherapy.
She is a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and the Society for Existential Analysis.
If you’re wondering whether counselling might be right for you, Frances offers a free Discovery Call — a chance to talk, ask questions, and find out how she can help.
