Chris Webster
About me
It is my firm belief that everyone has the right to access their truest and highest potential, and my working practice seeks to tap into this through embodiment, creativity, and a deep-dive into the psyche.
Issues I work with:
Creativity - I have an established creative practice and have worked internationally on art projects and exhibitions. I offer coaching to people in corporate settings who wish to tap into more creativity, and to existing creatives who wish to elevate their practice while overcoming internal barriers to creative success.
Neurodiversity - I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and again while at university. I have developed numerous strategies to harness the power of neurodiversity and took a special interest in ADHD during my clinical studies. I have mentored numerous clients on overcoming neurodiversity-related issues.
Spiritual Awakening - I have substantial experience with psychedelics, spiritual practices, and navigating hard-to-reach areas of the unconscious mind. This has been a prolonged journey for me that is ongoing. I have worked with many individuals in a state of spiritual emergence and those who have been diagnosed with psychosis. I feel confident holding space for those who wish to integrate psychedelic experiences and spiritual unfolding; and those who are having unusual experiences such as seeing visions.
Healing Magic - It is my belief that each individual is born with a gift, and that these are often shunned and ignored. My aim is to bring my clients back in touch with their inner power so that they can self-realise to their fullest unfolding for the benefit of themselves, humanity, and Mother Earth.
How I work:
I offer short-term packages for a quick blast on single issues, and longer-term arrangements for exploring underlying life patterns.
I also offer several one-off workshops and group programmes.
We will meet weekly, fortnightly, or monthly, depending on your needs.
Fees:
My standard fee for 1:1 sessions is £90 and POA for bespoke packages.
I operate on a get some - give some basis, whereby I make free offerings to those in need as part of my overall work portfolio.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership
Accredited Register Scheme
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
