Robert Maxwell-Jones

I appreciate people can find it difficult to take time off work to attend sessions so I offer early morning, evening and weekend appointments. 

I offer sessions through zoom, over the phone and can sometimes attend people's homes (please ask for more information about home visits).

Availability can be discussed in the initial assessment.

Hello, I am Rob an Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. This means I integrate the three modalities of Attachment, CBT and Person Centred Approach in my clinical work. 

My training in these three areas of counselling means I am able to tailor my support to the individual.

The Person Centred Approach is more than a type of counselling, it is also representative of how I work as a counsellor in session. As it suggests my approach is completely focused on you. 

In a counselling session you, the client, is the most important person. You are the strongest resource. To make the most of this resource you have my total focus when you are in a counselling sessions with me.

Reaching out for help/support can be a big, sometimes nerve wracking, thing to do. For this reason I try to make my practice as welcoming and accessible as possible. 

Transparency is important to me also, so I welcome questions at any time during the sessions. Your comfort and security is key.

I know it can be difficult to fit appointments around work and life in general so I am as flexible as I can be when it comes to agreeing session times. 

The first session is a free initial assessment. 

In this session we will have a chat about what has brought you to reach out for support. I will discuss the support/service I can offer. If we are both happy to continue I will send you over a copy of my contract and book the first counselling session.

It is important that you feel comfortable and safe speaking to me. Making a decision about counselling is very important and I want to make sure you make the right one for you.
