Colin is consistently excellent in understanding me and my needs. I never imagined that counselling could be this way, and there is a level of understanding demonstrated that some of my closest family and friends struggle to achieve. Colin is an absolute lifeline to me, I couldn't recommend him more.

I am committed to delivering client-centered support that gradually empowers individuals and enables them to make informed decisions. I possess a detailed understanding of the BACP Professional Conduct and Ethical Framework and apply such standards in interactions with clients and colleagues. Sound knowledge of various theoretical counseling approaches including Person-centred, CBT, Psychodynamic, and Solution-focused, and their application in real-world settings. My approach is integrative/pluralistic. Having been in practice for almost two decades, I have experience in most areas of therapy.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
