Les Best (Dip) MBACP
Email meAbout me
Hi, I'm Les and I am a Person Centered counsellor living in the New Mills area of the High Peak. I provide counselling for individual women, men and children in a safe and welcoming room where you can think about the challenges and difficulties that have brought you to counselling.
My method is not about giving advice or solutions to the problems and challenges you may face as I believe that we already have the answers within us. I will work very carefully with what you bring and support you to reach the point where you want to be with the tools you need.
As a member of the BACP I work within the guidelines of their Ethical framework.
I offer a free 30-minute introduction session to meet and see if we can work together.
Please feel free to contact me on either of the above numbers or email me at les@lesbestcounselling.co.uk
I will get back to you as soon as possible.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a Diploma in Person Centred Counselling from the Manchester Counselling and Training Centre. I have Place2be certificates for my work with children and various trainings. I have been a mentor for troubled teens and have extensive and ongoing experience as a volunteer bereavement counsellor.
