JSA Psychotherapy boosts growth with new apprentice Natasha Hudson

Burnley-based psychology and psychotherapy practice JSA Psychotherapy has experienced huge success since it was founded in 2003 by therapist and managing director Julie Stirpé. Now in its 15th year, the team has expanded once more, bringing in the talents of apprentice Natasha Hudson.

After leaving St John Fisher and Thomas More Roman Catholic High School, Colne local Natasha studied her A Levels at Burnley College. Rather than head to university, she decided she’d rather get to grips with her career as soon as possible. Her work ethic has always been exceptional – even during her A Level studies she pushed herself to gain customer service skills in her part-time job at Tesco’s Padiham store.

Now training as an apprentice Administrator on a L2 Business apprenticeship with Themis at Burnley College, Natasha hopes to gain as much experience as possible at JSA Psychotherapy as she can. She said about her new role at the practice:

“I was really intrigued to find out more about what does on within this unique business, and I was very interested in trying something new. I was looking for an apprenticeship that would help me gain new skills and give me a clear understanding of all levels of business administration. I chose JSA Psychotherapy because they could offer me all of that – as well as enabling me to learn about their range of therapies and how our team helps and support clients in person and online.”

“Everyone is so friendly here. As soon as I arrived for my interview I felt welcome and I knew I wanted to be a part of their team.”

It’s not all desk-work for Natasha, either. As a valued member of the JSA Psychotherapy family, part of her role includes regular opportunities to visit the practice’s equine centre, where the JSA therapeutic animals are cared for.

Julie Stirpé, Managing Director said about Natasha’s appointment:

“We’re so happy to welcome Natasha into our happy team of professionals! From the very start we could see her potential, and we hope that we can help support Natasha with her ambitious career goals within our team as we continue expanding our practice.”
