Steve White

I do not have availability to accept new clients at present but expect to do so in March 2024.

I am a psychotherapist available to meet in person in Lancaster or via secure online video.

You will be met in a safe and caring environment in which you can share, explore, understand and change your experience of anything that is causing you difficulty or distress.  My role as a therapist is to facilitate your understanding and growth, using my training and experience to help you achieve your goals.  You will receive my respect and support throughout that journey.

My work with clients is centred upon therapeutic relationships built on empathy, honesty and respect.  You will encounter a supportive, safe environment in which you feel understood and empowered to make the changes that are right for you.

As your therapist, I will be alongside you as you explore and work through difficulties or choices, creating between us an environment for understanding and changing any troubling thoughts, behaviours or emotions.  I commit to being real, open and engaged as an active participant in the therapeutic work.  You may be invited to experience, understand and clarify your emotions, or to consider where you find meaning in your life, but you will remain in control of each session.

The basis of my counselling and psychotherapy work is person-centred, influenced by related training and development in emotion-focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy and existentialist approaches. 

I would like to meet you, to introduce ourselves, explore what you are looking for and to answer any questions or concerns you have.  We might meet for several sessions to understand better the difficulties you are facing and how these experiences might be changed.  At these sessions, we will discuss whether to commit to continue meeting regularly with an agreed monthly fee.
