At my practice, I offer lots of different types of counselling services – from individual sessions to group therapy. It all depends on what each client needs and what they’ll benefit from. Because a lot of my clients lead busy lives, I also offer online and telephone counselling if that suits their schedule better. Although I always suggest coming in for a face-to-face session now and then, as these are often very helpful.
To be a certified counsellor, you need to have a Level 4 qualification in counselling. This can be as a diploma, or at a degree or postgraduate level. I chose to go down the university route by undertaking a BSc Hons in Psychology & Counselling. This meant that I got a degree and was accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am now a registered counsellor with over 10 years of experience and have completed a number of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) modules.
Most of my clients have certain goals in mind when it comes to their therapy. Often they want to resolve issues which are causing difficulties in their lives. This may be problems in their personal relationships that they want help working through. It could be with their partner, family, friends, or work colleagues. Or they may want to develop coping mechanisms to help deal with their own mental health. But often these can interlink. For example, if a client is wanting help with their personal relationships, this often has a positive knock-on effect on their own mental health.

I started talking with Fathima after some changes in my life. I had tried therapy previously but had struggled to find a therapist that suited me. Fathima understood what I was looking for and was extremely helpful from the beginning. Her sessions are well structured, she allows you to speak openly and gives very helpful insights and advice. I feel a lot more at ease and confident in myself since starting with her, and would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Gary is exceptional at what he does. He is someone who listens with compassion and provides insightful guidance and also challenged some of the unhelpful beliefs I had which is something I found huge value in. Highly recommend to anyone who is unsure of where to go or who to reach out to for help! Best thing I’ve ever done.

My experience working with Gary has been majorly productive in terms of improving my own mental health, confidence, and general outlook on life itself. Throughout our sessions, he has been patient while providing productive insights and methods of creating a stronger mindset. My relationship with myself and those around me has improved greatly since I started working with Gary.
