About me
Hi, I'm Joe, and I'm not your usual counsellor!
I'm a real person who'll talk to you, another a real person, with human connection and understanding. You can bring whatever you need to - I bring a wealth of life experience and training*. Everybody is welcome; labels are only labels, just bring yourself along.
I run full hour-long sessions with a few early and late weekday slots, and offer a free 1st session. I work online, so it doesn't matter where you are (or where I am!)
Get in touch whenever you're ready. I look forward to meeting you :-)
*I'm also a trained psychotherapist and supervisor (I don't maintain my accreditation as a psychotherapist so can't say "I'm a psychotherapist")
Training, qualifications & experience
My primary training is in Transactional Analysis; I hold a Level 6 diploma in Counselling and a Level 7 diploma in Psychotherapy.
I'm a member of BACP, and of UKATA. and an NCPS Accredited Registrant.
I'm also a qualified supervisor.
I've been counselling since 2019, working with a wide variety of issues, including with carers.

We are complex and there's rarely just one thing going on.
Just because a box isn't ticked doesn't mean we can't talk about it - I work with people, and we all have a complex set of issues.
