Insight Counselling & Mindfulness

About

There are times in our lives when most of us feel lost, anxious, and uncertain because of changes we have no control over. Consequently, it can impact our relationships, causing sleepless nights and ill-health. Such as depression, anxiety, or generally unwell, causing loneliness where we feel no one understands us or the challenges we face.

Counselling is an opportunity to talk to someone independent who is non-judgmental and totally outside of your typical day to day life. By talking to a professional counsellor, you can gradually unpick the difficulties you face and begin to put them into perspective.

My name is Glyn, and as a counsellor and previously a social worker, I have over twenty years experience of working with people of all ages and from all walks of life. Including children, teenagers, adults - families and individuals in the community, in the home, and in groups.

As a Counsellor, I can offer face to face counselling online and telephone counselling. Also, because I live within walking distance of a beautiful common, I can offer walking Counselling. Many people find that walking and talking help emotionally while also getting exercise. Should you wish, I am happy for you to bring your dog as long as it is trained.

As a Counsellor, I aim to work with individuals in whatever they bring to therapy, including all the stresses and strains that people may experience in their lives, whether it is physical or mental. I also aim to work with individuals to achieve their goals, sometimes starting another life journey.

My approach
I am trained as an Integrative Counsellor.
My training is focused on the core elements of the Person-Centred Approach, Transactional Analysis and Gestalt, and studying Mindfulness through my Yoga Training. By incorporating these working modalities, I can provide a safe space with empathy to share the problems you are facing.

Also, by working together with the Transactional Analysis and Gestalt, I can help you work towards your goals to make the changes that have brought us together.
Furthermore, by working together and learning the simple tools Transactional Analysis offers, so old habits are replaced with new skills and future aspirations/goals.

All our work is confidential with regular reviews to ensure you get what you want from the Counselling with me. My online connection is secure, and my room is private and designed to facilitate a sense of homeliness. Should you wish to attend, Walking Counselling and weather permitting, the area is quiet, away from roads and traffic.

I offer a twenty-minute introduction allowing you to ask any questions. I work within the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapies Ethical Standards, where the relationship between the client and the therapist is unique. We will work to develop a relationship that is best for you.

Thanks for reading
Glyn
