More about Stuart

  • 3 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

I am a BACP registered counsellor with over 3 years of professional work experience. I am a ‘person centred’ counsellor, which means I will not lead the conversation or advise you. Instead, I will listen to whatever you wish to tell me about whatever is going on with you and I will ask you questions which will help you to clarify your own thoughts. I want to hear your story.

You can expect me to listen to you with warm empathy and zero judgement.

I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, grief and loss, work issues, domestic abuse, carer strain, loneliness and more.

I know it can be difficult to reach out for help, so I want to say well done for making this first step!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
