Viv Webb, Reg. MBACP

About me

You may feel alone with your problems, whether or not you have people around you, who love you and care about your well-being. 
You may feel isolated or stuck with a particular situation or with a persistent emotional or mental health difficulty. 
You may just want to take time away from your usual routines and responsibilities, to reflect on the course of your life, and to regain a sense of perspective and purpose.

I'm qualified in counselling and psychotherapy and I work with people struggling with a wide range of emotional issues and mental health problems (please see the list, below). Whatever your situation or difficulty, you'll be warmly welcomed by me.

Talking with an experienced counsellor can help to deepen your own understanding of your personal difficulties. It can help you to find more successful ways of managing your life and help you to feel less isolated. It can be really helpful to talk with someone who is not directly or emotionally involved but who may be relied on for short-term or long-term emotional support, without becoming overwhelmed by your experience.

I will always strive to work with you as an individual coping with personal and unique life events - even in circumstances where you have already been given a diagnosis by another mental health professional. I don't see myself as an expert on how you should live your life; I won't tell you what to do. I will, however, support you, as we explore whatever you want to bring - from your past or your present - to our sessions.

I offer daytime and evening appointments. I would be happy to meet you for a stand-alone, one-off session if you don't feel ready to commit to more.  You can phone or email me for more information before making an initial appointment, if you prefer.
