Welcome to my profile, my name is Lewis. A counsellor and registered member with the BACP.
You have taken the time to search for a counsellor, so let me tell you a bit about myself and what you can expect if you have an interest in starting your therapeutic journey with me.
You may be experiencing challenges which carry some history, or it could be challenges that are happening right now. Regardless, this is the space where you can bring these challenges and we will work through them together.
I work with an Integrative approach, which means I don't work with a one size fits all approach. Depending on what you wish to bring and discuss, depends on the way we can work and the tools we can use whilst working together. This will all be done from a place of two adults in a space and simply talking.
Whist it can be difficult to speak about how you are feeling and the challenges you are facing with people, this space will be different. Its a space where there is no judgement, you are not being told how you should or should be feeling or how you should be working through things. This is a space where we speak about things at your own pace with the aim of meeting your needs or what you would consider as your end goal.
Whatever your reason is for seeking therapy, there is a space for you here to start this journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
