David Stace

I currently have availability for Virtual (via Zoom) or in person Monday - Friday evenings until 7 PM and Saturdays from 9,00 AM to 12.30 PM.

I am a Person Centered practitioner, and have Supervision certification from the Metanoia Institute where I am also a registered Supervisor and Counsellor.  As an Accredited Member of the BACP I have considerable supervision experience in the Education, Local Authority and Private Sector.  I am also the leader of 11 Clinical Supervisors in my senior Director role for the EAP Workplace Options.

Committed to the BACP Ethical Framework I aim to provide collaborative clinical supervision support to qualified practitioners and student counsellors. My own clinical practice is evidence based and I draw on a wide range of experiences, whilst challenging my supervises in their own fields and clinical endeavors offering a supportive and encouraging environment. This enables learning, growth, safe counselling practice as well as maintaining effective client support and ethical practice.  You can expect  written contract and Supervision which embraces the Rogerian six conditions.

I offer a free 40 minute conversation either face to face or virtually via Zoom to determine whether I can be of service to you.  If we decide that is the case I provide a written supervision agreement outlining the level of support and regularity of sessions.  BACP guidelines regarding Supervision hours required are followed my rates are £60 per 90 minute session.  I offer concessions to students.

I provide sessions in the evenings Monday - Thursday until 7PM, also on Saturday 9.00 am. - 12.30 p.m.

I am  passionate about providing confidential help and support for adults who recognise they need a safe space to talk through worries and concerns and crossroads. My aim is to help you move to a more balanced, purposeful, and meaningful lifestyle. Person Centred is my way of being but sometimes I adapt to your specific needs and work using CBT, solution focussed and mindfulness  approaches. I have a wide experience of working with relationship difficulties, workplace concerns, grief and loss, emotional distress and dealing with change, transition and trauma. Working globally has given me a very broad experience of supporting a wide range of people from different cultural backgrounds  across the world and in the UK, and I am committed to make my services affordable but most of all, helpful. It’s good to talk! Counselling Helps!

First and foremost I am a caring, professional and flexible therapist helping to make a positive difference to you.  I follow an evidence based approach using comprehensive contracting documentation and measuring tools to help you to move forward.  I currently have 2000 hours plus of evidence based face to face counselling experience over the past 14 years.  Within the first three sessions I work together with you to establish the goals that you wish to achieve.  I will continue to work with you as long as it is helpful to do so. Currently I am providing sessions via In-Person in Ealing or GoogleMeet/Zoom for video sessions. My current  rate is £50  per 50 minute session.  If money is really hard to come by, or if you are on benefits I also have two low cost slots per week which are currently available.

I find that an initial and free of charge 30-40 minute video or in-person visit helps to establish whether we can work together.  

I offer sessions in the evening past 5.00pm Monday - Thursday and occasional weekend appointments.  I can occasionally provide appointments times during the day.

I am a Therapist with 15 years experience and am adding Coaching to my practice at reduced rates as I am a Coach on an accredited course.  I am currently working towards membership of the International Coaching Federation whose Ethical Code I will be following to provide business life and leadership coaching,  I aim to provide a confidential, collaborative, motivational and supportive coaching practice which allows you to identify changes that you wish to make enabling you to achieve identified aims and self fulfillment.  

Despite 40 years business experience I am just starting to practice as a Coach and am in training. and so therefore I am offering free Coaching sessions to those who are unemployed and discounted sessions for £20 for 50 minutes for weekly sessions for as long as you need to get to where you want to get to. 

The first consultation is free.  The following sessions are contracted in writing for clarity.  All sessions are conduction via Zoom.   As part of my accreditation with the International Coaching Federation  I am required to submit recorded  sessions with your permission.
