Craig Miller

Anxiety, loneliness, family or other relationship struggles, traumatic and difficult past experiences, loss, feeling low, a medical diagnosis.....there are lots of reasons that may have driven you in search of someone to speak with. 

At the most basic level, that's exactly what I am able to offer.  A safe, confidential and grounded space to share whatever might be concerning you. Often, this might be something that feels impossible to discuss with your nearest and dearest.  Together, we will explore whatever has led you to seek counselling at whatever pace feels safest and easiest for you.   

In terms of how you might experience me......  Open, warm, grounded, not afraid to have a laugh or shed a tear, sensitive, non-judgemental and welcoming of all regardless of race, age, gender, sexuality or history.  

I firmly believe that the therapeutic counselling relationship is critical in achieving whatever personal outcomes you may be hoping for.  It has the potential to build confidence and can pave the way for us knowing ourselves in unexpected ways; accepting ourselves for who we are.  

I also believe that our own development when we were younger, our past experiences and our past relationships, undoubtedly have a considerable impact on our lives and relationships, in the present time.  Understanding ourselves better in this regard may not always result in the immediate change we hope for but it can provide important insights into creating a new template for our lives going forward.

Whatever may have led you to this point,  you are very welcome to get in touch for an initial appointment. 

I find it difficult to "box" the areas of counselling I offer and have attempted to indicate the types of topics that I've most focused on in the list above.

I have an increasing focus on working with people directly or indirectly affected somehow by gender, sex and relationship diversity.

I am very open to meeting with you and hearing about absolutely whatever it is that you are facing or dealing with.  Nothing is usually stand-alone and often there are multiple challenges or areas to talk about simultaneously. 

I will openly share my level of experience in any particular area with you, describe what I can offer and together we can decide whether or not we'd like to work together.

• £10 for an initial appointment (this goes towards the cost of the room).  
• £60 for a 50 minute counselling session thereafter. 

Unfortunately, the room I work from is accessible only via stairs.  Please contact me to discuss alternative options if this is not feasible for you.
