Hello, I’m Jenette-Marie

An integrative counsellor. I’m neurodivergent, I have tattoos, and I don’t fit the typical picture of what people may expect a counsellor to be.

My tattoos tell parts of my story, and I communicate and express myself in different ways, not just through words. I bring my training, my lived experience and myself into this work. I’m human, I make mistakes, and being real and honest matters to me.

Helping people feel heard is part of who I am. It’s what led me to train as a counsellor and create the Bella the Bee communication cards.

Everyone deserves a space where they can be heard, understood and accepted for who they are.

Life can feel messy and hard to make sense of sometimes. You might feel overwhelmed, stuck, uncertain or disconnected from yourself. You might be navigating change, exploring your identity or finding it difficult to explain how you feel. You don’t need to have everything worked out before you come.

At Space2B, I offer a space where you can pause, take your time and bring whatever is happening for you. There’s no expectation to find the right words or know where to start.

I work alongside you. Our sessions are shaped around what matters to you, at a pace that feels manageable, with room for you to tell me when something isn’t helping.

My approach is neurodiversity-affirming.

For me, that means respecting the way you experience the world and being curious about what works for you. There’s room for your communication style, your sensory needs and your way of processing things. We can talk about how to adapt our sessions so you feel more comfortable being yourself.

I’m passionate about supporting people who are exploring their identity and making sense of who they are. This can include psychoeducation—sharing knowledge that helps you understand your experiences and find language for things you may have struggled to explain.

I want to help you get to know yourself, understand yourself and begin to accept yourself, at your own pace.

My training is part of what I bring.

My qualifications tell you about my professional learning, but they don’t tell you everything about me. My lived experience, my neurodivergence, my curiosity and what I’ve learned from getting things wrong also shape how I listen, connect and work alongside you.

My qualifications and professional development include:

• BA (Hons) Integrative Counselling — Level 6

• Online counselling course — The Open University

• ITC Outdoor First Aid certification — SCQF Level 6

I’m also a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

You can come as you are. We’ll take time to find a way of working together that feels right for you.
