Dr Roger Duncliffe

Having received both vaccinations I am currently seeing clients in-person and online using Zoom/Skype. This offers an option to get the support you need the way you want.

For in-person sessions I continue to adhere to social distancing measures, have hand gels in the therapy room and, between clients, I use antibacterial wipes on all common surfaces.

I am a registered BPS and HCPC registered chartered counselling psychologist (CPsychol, DPsych) with experience across a diverse range of issues including substance use, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, personality disorders, self-harm in addition to many more concerns.

Deciding to engage with psychological therapies means finding the right therapist for you. I work in a practical and down to earth way that is geared towards helping you make the most out of therapy, at a pace that works best for you. Using a collaborative approach we will work together to explore and unravel the issues that are bringing concern to your life. I am here to listen, to be with, to empathise and to support you as best I can.

I have extensive experience in working with individuals who feel challenged by their emotional experiences. I conducted my doctoral research into men's use of substances with a focus on how they are used to manage social expectations of masculinity and men's emotional experiences. This does not mean it is only men who are challenged by social and gender expectations so please contact me if this resonates with you.

If you are hesitant with the notion of therapy, feel unheard or feel challenged by how you "should" be living your life; then my approach can help you. There are no expectations from me for how you should engage with therapy. I aim to provide a space that makes you feel comfortable and safe to express yourself. My doctoral level training and clinical exposure have given me the skills and experience to practice across a wide range of evidence-based theories and techniques such as existential, psychodynamic and CBT therapies

Please get in touch to discuss your therapy needs.
