About me
Feeling anxious, down, or unable to let go of the past? Maybe you're trapped in your own head, weighed down by worry or self-doubt, or are unsure how to take the next step. Perhaps you’re tired of putting on a brave face, or feel like you’ve lost touch with yourself.
Whatever is making life feel too heavy right now, you don’t have to carry it alone- and it doesn’t have to stay this way.
I offer online and telephone counselling for adults across the UK, supporting you to make sense of what’s going on and take back control of your life.
Who I Am
I’m Reece, a person-centred therapist based in Nottingham and founder of Third Path Therapy.
I believe therapy works best when you’re met as a whole person, not a set of symptoms to be fixed or managed. Real change is possible when you feel safe enough to be yourself and make sense of your experiences, thoughts, and emotions.
My role isn’t to analyse you. Instead, I offer a space where you can explore what’s going on at your own pace, reconnect with yourself, and work through what’s been holding you back.
I welcome clients from all backgrounds and identities, including LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent individuals.
Who I Can Help
I work particularly well with people who feel stuck between who they are and who they feel they should be, and support adults with a range of issues, including:
- Anxiety and persistent worry
- Low mood and depression
- Post-traumatic stress
- Low self-esteem and self-doubt
- Life transitions and identity changes
Rather than focusing only on symptoms, person-centred therapy explores what’s beneath them, helping you understand yourself more clearly and move forward in ways that feel authentic and sustainable.
What You Can Expect From Therapy
As therapy progresses, many clients begin to notice meaningful changes in how they feel, think, and relate to themselves.
Over time, they often find they:
- Understand themselves more clearly
- Feel more like themselves again
- Develop confidence and self-trust
- Feel less overwhelmed in daily life
- Feel more in control of their lives
Even if you’re unsure where to start, or just have a sense that something isn’t quite right, we can take the time to explore this together.
How Sessions Work
At Third Path Therapy, sessions are shaped around you- your priorities, experiences, and what matters most, with the option to join online or over the phone from wherever you feel most comfortable.
Every session is collaborative, providing a safe, supportive space where you can:
- Speak openly without judgement
- Explore thoughts and feelings as they arise
- Take your time when things feel difficult
- Make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface
This is your time to explore what's on your mind, whenever you feel ready, and in whatever way you choose.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside my private practice, I work as a counsellor at Nottinghamshire Hospice, supporting people experiencing bereavement and those at the end of life.
I have also supported adults experiencing anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, and sudden life transitions through counselling and support groups, across the UK and USA.
I’m a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (ID: 418062), and hold the following qualifications:
- Person-Centred Experiential Counselling and Psychotherapy MA
- Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience BSc (Hons)
- BACP Certificate of Proficiency
- NCFE CACHE Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills
I am fully insured as a private therapist and hold a current DBS.
I am in ongoing clinical supervision and regularly undertake Continued Professional Development in line with the ethical requirements of my membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
My Approach
Person-centred therapy is built on a simple idea: when you are truly heard, understood, and accepted as you are, real change becomes possible.
At Third Path Therapy:
- You decide what we focus on
- Sessions move at your pace
- There is no pressure to perform or “get better” quickly
- Your thoughts and feelings are treated as meaningful, not as problems to be fixed
Together we create a space where you can reflect, question old narratives, and discover new possibilities for your life.
Why “Third Path Therapy”?
The name reflects the belief that life isn’t limited to simple binaries like coping or failing, or right and wrong.
Often the most meaningful changes happen somewhere in between, when you’re able to explore your own path rather than being pushed in a particular direction.
Therapy here isn’t about ‘fixing’ you. It’s about reconnecting with yourself and finding a path forward that feels right for you.
I also facilitate person-centred support groups, which offer a shared space to connect with others and explore experiences in a safe and collaborative environment. For more information about group sessions, please visit my website.
Getting Started
When you first get in touch, we’ll arrange a free 30-minute initial consultation, which can take place online or by telephone. This is a gentle starting point rather than a therapy session, giving us the opportunity to meet and talk through what’s bringing you to therapy. It also offers space to explore what you’re hoping for, ask any questions you may have, and get a sense of how I work.
From there, we can see whether working together feels like the right fit for you- there’s absolutely no pressure to commit either way.
Taking the Next Step
Finding the right therapist matters.
Taking the next step can sometimes feel difficult, but you’re welcome to get in touch whenever you feel ready.
