Hi, I'm Peter and my aim is to give you a safe, discreet and confidential space to enable you freely to explore your thought and feelings, in your time, at your pace away from the rigour and breakneck speed of life.
I am a qualified counsellor (MBACP), with experience in working with clients suffering from anxiety, depression, addiction, self-esteem issues, bereavement, panic disorders or just feeling sad.
I have trained in many of the main therapeutic approaches; particularly Humanistic and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), allowing me to provide an approach unique for each person, embracing your needs. I value your uniqueness, individual belief systems or cultural backgrounds.
If you have any questions or would like to book a session with me, then I would like to welcome you to get in touch with me today.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
