About me and my therapy MBACP (Member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) I (William) am here to listen. As an integrative counsellor, I offer a combined approach to psychotherapy, bringing together various elements of specific therapies... Tailoring therapy to my clients and not my clients to the therapy. I offer down-to-earth, warm, empathic and non-judgmental counselling thus, giving you the opportunity to talk about any issues which may be affecting you. Everyone has their own unique story and I am here to listen to yours. I am a qualified and experienced Integrative Counsellor.

Feeling anxious, depressed, stuck? Need somewhere to talk without being judged -  somewhere safe to explore difficult or painful thoughts and experiences? I can help you get a better understanding of what's going on and explore ways to move forward. I work with issues around depression, anxiety, trauma, identity, sexuality, gender and spirituality .

Deciding to engage in therapy is a positive and brave decision to embark on a journey of self-discovery. As a therapist, my role is to create a secure base and be a guide for you, so that you can take up this challenge of self-discovery and move towards greater consciousness, choice and positivity. While working with difficulties in the present many have their origins in emotional experiences and unconscious emotional learning in early life relationships. This includes family, main caregivers and other influential figures. Also events and consistent experiences, which may amount to degrees of difficulty, pain or trauma.

Originally from Manchester, I now live in Glasgow. I started my counselling training in London on Goldsmith University’s Graduate Certificate in Humanistic & Psychodynamic Counselling, before completing the University of Strathclyde’s MSc, Counselling & Psychotherapy. At Strathclyde I trained in Person-Centred Therapy and this forms the basis of my practice. I have experience working with a wide variety of people, I’m particularly familiar with autism and neurodiversity, and I work with all kinds of issues including depression and anxiety, as well as those vague feelings of just not being what you ought to be.

Do you feel you would like your relationship to be in a better place? Perhaps you're going through a life transition, such as becoming parents, or you're raising a family and you would love to find that spark between you as a couple again. Have you noticed a distance between you, and that you miss the closeness and intimacy you once shared? Maybe your relationship has reached a crisis point such as an affair and you're looking to help your relationship heal. Or maybe communication has become an issue, leaving you feeling that your true needs are not being met and you would like to understand each other better.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by past or present circumstances. You may have developed ways of coping that are beginning to negatively impact your daily life. You may be exhausted by feelings of guilt, shame, confusion or anger. As a person-centred therapist, I seek to empower you by providing a therapy space built upon trust & empathy within a therapeutic relationship. Under the person-centred approach, you are the expert of yourself in the therapy space. No-one knows you better than you. However, sometimes we can lose sight of who we are and not know what to do next.

I’m a qualified post grad CBT therapist, Yoga instructor, and studied islamic psychology (Sufism) for 17 years. Life at times can feel a little over whelming, we can lose perspective and fall into a pattern of unhealthy habits, sleeping too late, emotional eating, drinking too much alcohol, and in constant worry. These behaviours may be your coping strategies to help you feel better but aren’t so helpful to your physical and mental well being resulting in feeling anxious and depressed. Having an outside perspective on what’s going on in your life can really help refocus your mind and realign your life style with your core values.

Hello and thank you for looking into my profile. It can be challenging finding the right therapist amidst a sea of warm faces and shiny profiles full of experience. However, I firmly believe that like any relationship, the therapeutic one needs to feel like a 'good fit' too. This outlook forms the ethos of my therapy practice as a counselling psychologist where I work in collaboration with a client to bring change through the healing properties of a relationship. It is my belief that a supportive, accepting relationship allows for deeper self exploration and long-lasting change.

Change is constant, change is inevitable. Life moves us in different directions affecting every aspect of our lives. Our relationships, both personal and professional, change. Our relationship with ourselves changes over time. We can have a tricky time expressing the impact this has on us. We can feel stuck, overwhelmed and weighed down by the load we carry. The juggling act of modern life, having too many balls in the air, can be exhausting. Counselling offers you a time to rest that load, maybe even leave some of it with me. A time to reflect, putting aspects of your life into perspective.

At different times in our lives we go through challenges that can affect how we feel and have a negative impact on us. We all have unique ways of dealing with situations. At these times, many people find it helpful to explore how they are feeling with somebody else. It is important at these times to have a safe space to do this.
